Bringing together individuals and institutions devoted to health promotion and disease prevention to redefine how we educate the health professions workforce.
APTR is
seeking a resident physician to serve in the Association of American Medical
Colleges (AAMC) Organization of Resident Representatives (ORR). The ORR provides a resident voice on policy
matters before the association and further offers leadership and professional
development opportunities for those interested in academic medicine careers,
through venues with peers, specialty society and faculty leaders, and related
members of the medical education community.
The ORR
meets twice annually; once during AAMC’s fall meeting and again in conjunction
with the Council of Academic Societies (CAS) spring meeting. All travel and meeting related expenses
associated with ORR attendance are fully funded by the AAMC. Residents are asked to bring the preventive
medicine specialty perspective of fellow resident trainees to the deliberations
of the ORR and are not explicitly expected to represent policy positions of
APTR.
Eligibility
for appointment stipulates active enrollment in a residency or fellowship
program as of July 1, 2013. To apply for
this position please submit a CV and statement of interest by June 20, 2013. Should you have questions or require
additional information, please contact Flannery Peterson, APTR Project
Coordinator at 202.463.0550 x137 or frp@aptrweb.org.
