Effects of Department Type and Disability Status on Medical School Faculty Wellbeing.

Purpose: Faculty wellbeing impacts student learning and is a priority among medical schools, especially as a counterbalance to growing burnout. Previous researchers found differences in burnout by sex and race among clinicians, but not for faculty with disabilities. Accordingly, the purpose was to test the association between faculty's wellbeing, burnout, and control over workload and investigate differences in wellbeing attributed to department type and ability status.

Nurturing Untapped Integration Expertise of MS4 Assessment Writers.

Creating original, integrated multiple-choice questions (MCQs) is time-consuming and onerous for basic science and clinical faculty. We demonstrate that medical students are co-experts to overcome assessment challenges of the faculty. We recruited, trained, and motivated medical students to write 10,000 high-quality MCQs for use in the foundational courses of medical education.
