Accessing Available AAMC Data for Research, Evaluation, Policy, and Advocacy – March 12

If you have not already registered, please register to view the recording.

Join Hershel Alexander, PhD, AAMC Director of Data Operations and Services, for a discussion on AAMC data resources. Dr. Alexander will provide an overview of selected AAMC data resources that may be of interest to the biomedical science community for research, evaluation, policy, and advocacy purposes. The presentation will cover descriptions of how to access AAMC data and what data are available, including:

• Compensation data on residents, faculty, chiefs, chairs, deans, and medical school and hospital administrators 
• Research, instructional, care, administrative, financial, and other data about medical schools and teaching hospitals from data collections such as the annual LCME surveys, the Operations Management Survey, and the Hospital Operations and Finance Survey
• Applicant, student, and resident data from data collections such as MCAT, AMCAS, Student Records System (SRS), student surveys, ERAS, and GME Track 
• Academic, employment, and demographic data on medical school faculty from data collections such as the Faculty Roster

We welcome discussion during a question and answer period to follow the  presentation on whatever topics might be of interest, including your recommendations for how to improve AAMC data collections and data reports.

You may also submit questions ahead of time to Amanda Field, PhD, AAMC Senior Science Policy Specialist, at afield@aamc.org.

The AAMC looks forward to providing this platform for interaction with the GREAT and GRAND communities on these and future topics. Please send topic suggestions to Amanda Field (above).
