VI. Faculty Awards & Recognition
Fundamental Principles
• Respect• Culture: respect it but do not be bound by it
if it is not helping accomplish objectives• Always keep your promises• Think win-win• Avoid false dichotomies
Goals
To know we are valued for our work: teaching, administration, patient care, basic research, clinical research.
To have a sense of confidence and purpose• Realize our competencies• Recognize that we have excellent resources• Appreciate our valuable colleagues• Understand the privilege of working in a beautiful
place doing what we love & getting paid to do it
Have effective communication among us• Roundtable, public meetings• [email protected]
Vision for the School of Medicine
Teaching: evolve our curriculum; high tech & high touch
Research: support/expand basic, translational & clinical• Support our researchers; expand as appropriate• Assure stability of our graduate & MSTP programs• Support post-doctoral fellows (clinical and basic)• Targeted expansion of cores and areas of excellence
Clinical Service: “Move As One”• We are not divisible – we cannot stand alone• Address rifts among SOM, HSF, MC• Interdisciplinary collaboration: Nursing & SOM• Expansion/collaboration with partner hospitals
Faculty Development: support & make our people aware of their possibilities and potential
• TAM, ADE, LAM
Communication
2008-09 Faculty Survey Comments
• “Support the researchers we already have.” [Yes]• “Welcome critical input.” [Yes. Bring a solution]• Attend to long term planning vs. short term problem-addressing [Agree—but we can do both!]• “The dean is ignorant of opportunities in entrepreneurial outreach…” [Working to learn more]
“Everyone is entitled to their own opinions but not their own facts.”
Daniel Patrick Moynihan
Budget Salary freeze for University faculty 2009-2010 HR: “Managed Hiring Freeze” SOM Budget• Decreased endowment• Decreased Eminent Scholar Match• ETF unchanged• 2009-10 budget cut of 6% has been incorporated;
cuts in all areas, greater in administrative areas UVa Capital Projects • New Cabell and Ruffner Hall Renovations delayed• Ivy Translational Building delayed for 1 budget cycleMedical Education budget is being reorganized• Recovered funds will support new curriculum

Conflict of Interest
Financial interests reporting system
Year 1 reporting went smoothly
Version 2, which should dramatically increase ease of use, to be rolled out in late April
COI policy modified to prohibit direction or participation in interventional human subjects research by individuals with a financial interest in the sponsor or product being tested of>$10K income in the past year/anticipated over the
coming year or
>3% ownership
Disclosure for Patients & Students
Those meeting the reporting threshold of $10,000
or more/year or 3% ownership will be listed on
a website for patients, students and others to
review. They will be designated as one or more
of the following:
• Scientific Advisory Board member
• Investigator receiving research support
• Other consulting activities

Medical Education
“Next Generation” Curriculum: Objectives
• Integrate/coordinate basic science and clinical experiences
horizontally and vertically throughout the four years
• Regular and frequent patient contact in early years of
medical education
• Integrate/coordinate patient experiences with clinical science
• Balance lectures, case-based learning, patient
experiences and blocks of productive open time
• Create opportunities to explore the alternative pathways of
general medicine, specialty medicine and research
Medical Education
“Next Generation” Curriculum: Concerns
• What we have “works.” Why change?
• “No evidence that an integrated curriculum is better”
• “Do we have the time & resources needed for active
learning models?”
• “Students will lose science education”
• Loss of teaching funds if less lecturing done
• Changing expectations and impact on promotion & tenure
• Anxiety about having necessary group facilitation skills and
active learning methods
Medical EducationCurriculum: Rationale & Mandates
USMLE Gateway Format - Redesign in progress with emphasis
on medical science in clinical contexts:
Medical education as "the doctor's ability to access
relevant information, evaluate its quality, and apply
it to solving clinical problems"
LCME Accreditation - Education Standard, ED-33:
Medical schools should design, manage, and evaluate a
"coherent and coordinated curriculum,” defined as "content
that is coordinated and integrated within and across the
academic periods of study (horizontal & vertical integration)."
Teaching, practicing, and assessing knowledge and skills
in context improves recall & application (Bransford,
Brown & Cocking, 1999, How People Learn)
Medical Education
