Image SeminarDr. Dania Felipe (Endocrinology), Dr. Amelia Jernigan (Gynecology/Oncology), and Dr. Kelly Babineaux (Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery) recently attended the AAMC Mid-Career Women Faculty Leadership Development Seminar. 

This three-day seminar is designed to provide mid-career women faculty with the knowledge and skills necessary to support their continued progress along the path to leadership in academic medicine and science. The seminar covers organizational leadership topics and career advancing strategies that are essential for effective leaders throughout various mission-critical activities.
The Mid-Career Seminar is designed for women physicians and scientists with an appointment at an AAMC member school of medicine, with a minimum of two years of experience (from the date of the seminar) as an Associate Professor. Mid-career applicants should have demonstrated leadership ability, either in formal administrative or other leadership roles. Applicants should have a minimum of eight years’ experience in academic medicine and science, and be actively seeking promotion opportunities to advance to the next stage of their career along the path to full professorship and/or other advanced leadership positions. Due to high demand, and limited capacity, the seminar is unable to accept anyone outside of this target audience.

The 2023 Seminar will be held on December 5-7 at InterContinental Buckhead in Atlanta, GA, click here for more information.
