AAMC Affinity Group Evolution

Beginning July 1, 2026, The AAMC is premiering 11 new Affinity Groups. The GEA will evolve into one or more groups in the new structure with many in the GEA anticipated to find a home in the Curriculum, Assessment, Instruction, and Research (CAIR) Group. Additionally, GEA members may wish to participate in other new groups, such as the new GME group, Faculty and Staff Vitality group, and/or Medical Education Leadership and Administration. If you have questions and suggestions about the new structure, submit them to the GEA Steering Committee.
