Abstract

To gain a better understanding of the effects on medical schools of transformations in medical practice, science, and public expectations, the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) constituted the Advisory Panel on the Mission and Organization of Medical Schools (APMOMS) in 1994. APMOMS created six working groups to address the issues deemed by panel members to be of highest priority. This article is a report of the findings of the Working Group on Capturing the Promise of Medical Research, which addressed questions concerning the direction of research and the integration of scientific developments in medical education and practice. The working group explored a broad panorama of issues, including those related to sustaining the accomplishments, momentum, and progress of medical research. A dominant theme emerged: the central importance of an environment of discovery to the core missions of medical schools. The present article consists of the group's comments and recommendations on the main topic-the promise of biomedical research in relation to medical education-and their comments and recommendations on five other topics that have important relationships to the main topic and to the group's central charge. These are ethics; academia-industry relations; the administrative structure of medical schools; university-medical school relations; and research funding.
