The ACGME proudly announces the retirement of Chief Education Officer and Special Advisor to the President and Chief Executive Officer Timothy P. Brigham, MDiv, MS, PhD. Dr. Brigham has been a guiding force in shaping graduate medical education (GME), advancing faculty development, and championing physician well-being for almost two decades.

To provide clarity for trainees and programs during this extraordinary time, the ABMS and ACGME offer the following statement of joint principles and will continue to address ongoing developments.

An interview with the ACGME's Dr. Stuart Slavin about a new resource and other ACGME efforts to combat burnout and improve well-being.

As a resource to the graduate medical education community, the ACGME is sharing the following statement from FSMB regarding hospital access to the organization's Physician Data Center.

The ACGME looks forward to welcoming international attendees to the ACGME 2023 Annual Educational Conference with a variety of sessions of interest to a global audience.

Dr. Hedy Wald of Boston Children’s Hospital-Harvard Medical School and the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University was a first-time ACGME Annual Educational Conference attendee as a result of acceptance of her poster, Faculty Videos – An Innovation within Residency Resilience Skills Programs at Two Institutions, for presentation at the Poster Session. An avid social networker, she introduced herself to us at the Twitter Board on Thursday morning before the pre-conferences, and we continued the conversation throughout and after the conference. We asked Dr. Wald about her experience as a poster presenter and first-time attendee of our conference.

This first post in a new series focuses on resources provided by the ACGME on its website and distance learning platform for residents and fellows.
