BMC Medical Education
BMC Medical Education is an open access, peer-reviewed journal that considers articles on all aspects of education and training of healthcare professionals.
BMC Medical Education is calling for submissions to our Faculty development in medical education Collection. Faculty development is essential to fostering high-quality teaching and learning, curriculum development, mentorship, and leadership, ensuring that medical education evolves to meet the needs of students, trainees, and the healthcare system.
This Collection aims to highlight research and insights into effective faculty development strategies, programs, and outcomes. We welcome submissions that explore novel approaches, evaluate existing initiatives, and identify best practices in faculty development across diverse medical education contexts.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Design, implementation, and evaluation of faculty development programs
• Training in competency-based education, interprofessional teaching, and cultural competence
• Development of teaching skills for clinical educators, including bedside teaching and simulation-based learning
• Leadership training and mentorship development for faculty members
• Utilization of technology, such as virtual reality or online platforms, in faculty development
• Assessment of the impact of faculty development on student outcomes and institutional performance
• Approaches to fostering resilience and preventing burnout among medical educators
• Strategies for promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion within faculty development initiatives
