How Simulation is Transforming Medical Education
Moderator: Jim Littlejohn
Speaker:

Director of Clinical Simulation
The Texas A&M University System HSC COM / Scott & White
This session will describe the paradigm shift in medical

to self-directed learning, practice to pre-defined standards of
competency, and an emphasis on the human factors contributing to
safe healthcare practice and patient safety. This session will focus
on the educational theory underlying this new paradigm in medical
education and will describe the benefits for learners in medical
education. Curricular examples and lessons learned in the development
of a collaborative multi-institutional clinical simulation center
from the experience of Texas A&M University System Health Science
Center and partners from Scott & White Memorial Hospital and Temple
College will be included.

OSR Plenary Session: OSR Innovative Programming Showcase
Moderators: Jim Littlejohn and JP Gniady
Does your school have an innovative new curriculum in
the works? How about an original elective course or extra-curricular
program? Do you think you have a great mentoring or career counseling
program or a new take on freshmen orientation? The OSR Administrative
Board is looking for new and exciting student programming ideas
to showcase at the AAMC Annual Meeting. Five 10-minute presentations
(including a brief Q&A session) will be selected from the pool of
submissions. For more information, contact OSR Chair-Elect, Jim

OSR Breakout Session 3A: Residency Program Directors
and their Decision-Making Processes
(Continental Breakfast)
Moderators: Heather Spader and Justin Weis
Speakers:
Paul J. Jones, MD, Assistant Dean Student Services, Rush Medical
College
Angela Nuzzarello, MD, Associate Dean for Student Programs
and Professional Development Northwestern University, Feinberg School
of Medicine
There are numerous perceptions of what residency directors
are looking for when they are screening and interviewing applicants
for residency positions. The goal of this session is to provide
medical students with the perspectives of a variety of residency
directors on issues such as:
- What information is used to screen applicants?
- How can applicants excel in interviews?
- What can applicants do to create strong applications?
- What is the role of externships in strengthening
or weakening an application?
- How should/can students evaluate residency programs?
- How do residency programs vary?
- What "additional" information is helpful to provide
to programs?
- What is detrimental?

OSR Breakout Session 3B - The Social Role of Physicians
(Continental Breakfast)
Moderators: Erick Cheung and Diane Reis
Speaker:
Maxine A. Papadakis, MD, Associate Dean, Office of Student Affairs
UC San Francisco School of Medicine
It is widely accepted that medicine should be holistic;
the care of the patient should address the physical, mental, social
and spiritual dimensions. Medical education is continuing to address
the public's desire for more cultural sensitivity and humanism in
their physicians, the practice of evidence-based medicine, and more
emphasis on patient-centered care. As the healthcare system continues
to erode financially and politically, there has been a call for
physicians to act in a broader context as leaders, in addition to
healers and teachers. What role should physicians play in society?
What is the "physician-society" obligation and how does it differ
from the "physician-patient" obligation? What changes are needed
in the medical education pipeline (recruitment, admissions, undergraduate
and graduate medical education) to produce physicians with a greater
duty to society?

OSR Plenary Session: The Future of Allopathic Medicine
Moderator: Bharath Nath
Speakers:
Jordan J. Cohen, MD, President Emeritus, AAMC
Michael M.E. Johns, MD, Director, The Robert W. Woodruff
Health Sciences Center, Executive Vice President for Health Affairs
and CEO, Emory Healthcare
In recent years, there has been a push for training
medical students in areas ancillary to medicine. In medical schools
across the nation, curricula and degree-granting programs have been
forwarded in areas such as basic and clinical research, public health
and policy, ethics, law, and other professional areas. In light
of a looming physician workforce shortage and increased societal
demands for physicians, what role will allopathic medicine play
over the next 20 years and how will the needs of society be met?
In this plenary session, we will consider the following questions:
- Should allopathic medicine be focused on producing
more "simple doctors" (more physicians focused on providing direct
patient care), or should allopathic medicine be producing more
"diversified doctors" with cross-professional degrees?
- How will allopathic medicine co-exist with osteopathic
medicine and the other allied health professions 20 years from
now?
- Some have suggested that doctors be the "managers"
or the "conductors" of the healthcare system. Should we relinquish
more direct patient care to other health professionals (PAs, NPs,
RNs, etc...) so that we may assume the oversight role?
- What is the vision for a better healthcare system,
one that takes into account medical education and the pipeline?

OSR Breakout Session 4A - Who's Teaching What to
Whom? The Conflicting Roles of Industry, Faculty, and Students in
Pharmacology Training
Moderators: Bharath Nath and Rob Stenger
Speaker:
Jerry Avorn, MD, Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School Chief
Division of Pharmacoepidemiology and Pharmacoeconomics, Brigham
and Women's Hospital
The January 4th issue of JAMA included the publication
of a landmark statement recommending sweeping changes designed to
limit conflicts of interest between pharmaceutical companies and
faculty at academic medical health centers. Titled 'Health Industry
Practices That Create Conflicts of Interest,' the article, which
gained coverage in the national news media, was written by several
leaders in academic medicine, and included recommendations for policy
changes to the distribution of pharmaceutical samples, the composition
of drug formularies, financial support to continuing medical education,
consulting and research contracts, and participation in speaker's
bureaus. The dramatic scope of the proposed changes highlights how
pervasive potentially fraught arrangements have become at academic
medical centers. Nonetheless, pharmaceutical companies in many ways
represent the best that modern medicine has to offer, with astonishing
developments over the past 20 years that have brought untold benefit
to millions of individuals. In this session, the myriad relationships
between industry and academic medicine will be explored.

OSR Breakout Session 4B - Debt Effects on Specialty
Choice and Minority Recruitment
Moderator: Robby Hollowell
Speakers:
Joan Reede, MD, Dean for Diversity and Community Partnership, Harvard
Medical School
The issue of medical student debt and the rising cost
of medical school attendance have consistently been among the top
concerns students have about current trends in medical education.
This session will re-examine this issue from a unique perspective
and explore how the realities and the perceptions of the cost of
medical school and graduate debt impacts the ability of medical
schools to attract the “best and the brightest” students, in particular
those from minority and disadvantaged backgrounds.
