Abstract: In July 2004, the Institute for Improving Medical Education (IIME) issued the report: "Educating Doctors to Provide High Quality Medical Care: A Vision of Medical Education in the United States." The Institute's director, Mike Whitcomb, invited the Group on Educational Affairs to respond to the report. At the 2005 AAMC meetings, a plenary addressed "What was working in Med Ed, across the continuum and what was not." Each GEA section subsequently held focus sessions asking the same questions relating to their segment of medical education. The GEA then created a white paper response, which has been discussed at sessions at the 2006 AAMC meeting. This UGME business meeting is the opportunity to review the process to date, including the various reports. We will then hear from two national/international groups, their reactions to the reports (both basic scientists and clinical educators across disciplines). As a group, the three entities will discuss collaborative opportunities across this spectrum of educators, opportunities to joint venture on "next steps" in moving the agenda for change in undergraduate medical education.

Agenda:

1. Introduction: Overview of IIME report; GEA plenary and focus sessions; GEA white paper response. Jeff Stearns (chair, UGME section) 15 min.
2. ACE: clinical educators group reflections on the GEA white paper. Lou Pangaro (head ACE) 15 min.
3. IAMSE: basic science educators group reflections on the GEA white paper. Giulia Bonaminio and Pat Finnerty (past and current head of IAMSE). 15 min.
4. Group activity to define collaborative opportunities for the three groups to move forward in implementing the agenda for change. Lynn Cleary (chair elect UGME section) 30 min.
5. Summary and next steps: Lynn Cleary 15 min.
