Primary Care Faculty Development Initiative (PCFDI) Demonstration Pilot
PI: Carney, P/Eiff, P

Total funding to date: $458,971
The purpose of this initiative is to begin the dialogue with a dedicated group of faculty who wish to accept the many inherent challenges involved in this personal and professional transformation. The proposal seeks to create a foundation for this change and to foster the development of resource communities of primary care faculty within training institutions. It will accomplish this through focused faculty development in critical skill areas that have been identified as urgent priorities by policy-makers and faculty within the academic communities of the three primary care disciplines of pediatrics, family medicine and internal medicine.
