Currently led by Abby Spencer, MD, MS, FACP, the Academy encourages creative approaches to teaching, learning and assessment. It also organizes mentorship and faculty development programs and supports faculty research and scholarships.
The Academy presented the Honor Roll Awards, and more, during the Education Day celebration at the University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy Student Center on October 5, 2021. See all Honor Roll Award recipients here.
