This week's e-Communication includes information the Annual Educational Conference's session schedule, an opportunity to participate in the Clinical Learning Environnment Review (CLER) Evaluation Committee, the latest episode of the "Hot Topics in MedEd" podcast, and more.

The Back to Bedside initiative is designed to empower medical residents and fellows to generate innovative strategies that will allow them to engage on a deeper level with what is at the heart of medicine: their patients.

The collaborative is third in a series to engage residents and fellows, improve their ability to provide quality health care.

Physician educators must explore ways to teach physicians to practice with excellence, compassion, and justice, Dr. Arno K. Kumagai argued at the most recent Baldwin Seminar, the first of the 2019-2020 season. His talk, Reflection, Dialogue and Different Ways of Knowing: Beyond the Competency Paradigm in Medical Education, took place June 26 at the ACGME offices in Chicago, and was livestreamed.

To further explore glocalization in the health care space, ACGME Global Services spoke with the senior director of National University of Singapore School of Medicine Centre for Medical Education and senior consultant of the Ministry of Health Singapore.

Dr. Nasca responds to the past year's acts of kindness and cruelty, especially in regards to hatred and violence towards communities of color. He calls on the graduate medical education community to advocate for change, fighting against systemic bias, and vows the ACGME will be a model for the profession.

The ACGME's Back to Bedside initiative seeks innovative ideas to increase time residents and fellows spend with patients and reduce physician burnout.

On this first full day of the ACGME Annual Educational Conference, attendees were encouraged to “reignite the fire” of passion that drives them to work in graduate medical education, and to rediscover their meaning in medicine.

Physician well-being has been a key issue for the ACGME for as long as the organization has been serving the GME community.

The ACGME is delighted to announce the 2022 Annual Educational Conference Marvin R. Dunn Keynote Address and Closing Plenary speakers, two dynamic and engaging presenters whose messages will resonate with the entire graduate medical education (GME) community during these challenging times.
