Since 2000, the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC)
has been honored to partner with the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC) in a Cooperative Agreement that facilitates
a wide range of activities to improve and increase collaborations
between the academic medicine and public health.
The AAMC's functions under the Cooperative Agreement include:
- Administering the pre-award application, notification, and post-award
funds management processes for public health-related grants awarded
by the CDC to medical schools and teaching hospitals, many of
which are AAMC members.
- Developing and carrying out AAMC-based
"in-house" projects.
- Enhancing AAMC members' understanding of the CDC and its priorities.
