Letter from ACGME President & CEO Dr. Thomas J. Nasca describing the changes being implemented to respond to the current environment, balanced with accreditation responsibilities to residents and fellows, patients, and the public.

This award honors residents and fellows who have actively implemented strategies that lead to measurable improvements in patient safety within their Sponsoring Institution or residency/fellowship program. These individuals demonstrate a commitment to advancing patient safety through innovative solutions and initiatives, resulting in tangible outcomes that enhance the overall quality of care.

The FIRST trial and the iCOMPARE trial will provide much-needed data on the effects of duty hour regulations.

The ACGME has announced its Request for Grant Proposals for the 2026-2028 cycle of Back to Bedside, an initiative designed to empower residents and fellows to lead and develop transformative and innovative projects to foster meaning and joy in their work by increasing connection with their patients.
