Guide to the Government Relations Representatives group

The GRR listserv is used to update group members on relevant legislative and regulatory news, activities, and resources. It’s also used to promote upcoming meetings and events.

Only designated GRR members are eligible for subscription to the GRR listserv.

GRR members must be appointed by a medical school dean or teaching hospital/health system CEO. Your dean or CEO's office may communicate your appointment by email to gov-relations@aamc.org, or make group appointments online via My Engagement.

The AAMC offers a wide range of resources to GRR members in order to keep members up to date on the AAMC’s advocacy and policy priorities and issues affecting academic medicine (sign in required).
