Purpose 

Established in 2023, APCCMPD and CHEST Medical Educator Scholar Diversity Fellowship Award recognize the value of a diverse community in improving medical education in pulmonary and critical care medicine.

The APCCMPD and CHEST Medical Educator Scholar Diversity Fellowship provide support and funding for fellows who intend to pursue a career in Medical Education and whose experiences significantly contribute to the diversity of the medical educator community. This includes the variety of personal experiences or career plans, values, and worldviews that arise from differences in culture and circumstance. This scholarship provides monetary support for expenses related to training a fellow for an academic career as a Medical Educator. Allowable expenses include but are not limited to, courses related to teaching skills or medical education research; funding to support a 1-year medical education research project; and providing protected time to an external mid-career or an advanced career medical educator at a different institution than the fellow’s institution, to mentor the fellow-in-training.
