AAMC-CDC Cooperative Agreement

The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) is pleased to have this important interaction with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The Cooperative Agreement (CA) was established in fall 2000 as a partnership between the CDC and the AAMC. This agreement emphasizes the importance of improved and increased collaborations between public health and medicine. It will facilitate a wide range of activities. There are two major categories of collaborative activities between the AAMC, its members, and the CDC.

The AAMC activities include:

  • Developing and carrying out AAMC-based "in-house" projects and traineeships
  • Enhancing AAMC members' understanding of the CDC and its priorities
