Program on GIM Research & Educational Scholarship (PROGRESS)

We are committed to fostering research, educational, and other scholarly initiatives in the Division of General Internal Medicine. One way we do so is through the Program on GIM Research and Educational Scholarship (PROGRESS).

Supporting Scholarly Growth

While the Program is meant for all members of our Division, one key motivation is to support faculty on the Clinician-Educator and Clinician Tracks as well as trainees and Advanced Practice Professionals (APPs) interested in scholarly work.

Our Mission

The mission of PROGRESS is to promote research and educational scholarship across the Division. The Program seeks to achieve that mission in several ways:

Project Coordination Support
Many things go into good scholarship, including project coordination encompassing regulatory, workflow, and implementation activities. The Division provides faculty and APPs with dedicated project coordinator support to advance scholarly projects.
Data Management & Analysis Support
Good scholarship involves strong data management and analysis. The Division provides faculty and APPs with dedicated statistical analyst and biostatistician support to promote scholarly evaluation.
Mentored and Collaborative Project Opportunities
Mentors and collaborators can identify projects and/or guide faculty, trainees, and APPs in order to provide experiential learning and scholarly exposure.
Dissemination Support
The Division encourages faculty, trainees, and APPs to consider ways to disseminate findings from their research or educational scholarship in order to share generalizable and/or actionable insights. PROGRESS offers faculty and APPs case-by-case dissemination guidance and support. Examples of prior dissemination products (with names of GIM faculty, APPs, and staff, as well as local collaborators, bolded):
