Abstract

While scholarship is a critical component of the mission of all academic departments, little is known about how to approach the scholarly development of clinician faculty. The authors developed a thematically based faculty development curriculum with two primary components: evidence-based clinical practice and critical appraisal of current clinical research. They took a task management approach to reducing anticipated barriers to program success by instituting a regularly scheduled seminar series, providing evidence-based reading materials, recruiting clinician faculty as speakers for the clinical presentations, and providing continuing medical education credits for seminar attendance. This case study illustrates a faculty development curriculum that stimulated scholarly discussion and research activities in the authors' clinician faculty.
