Professional Advancement for Clinician Educators and Scholars (PACES)

Why do faculty choose to practice at IU School of Medicine? For many, it is commitment to teaching the next generation of physicians. For others, it is the calling to improve medical care through innovation, quality improvement and research. PACES provides guidance and resources for faculty who seek further development as skilled educators, innovators, and leaders in medicine.

Abstract Writing Workshops

Do you have a clinical vignette, quality improvement project, education curriculum or any other scholarship that you have been working on? Have you thought about presenting it as an abstract at a regional or national meeting? Don’t know where to start or what to do? Your PACES team is here to help!
Narrative Medicine Writing Workshops

The PACES Program is excited to offer Narrative Medicine Writing Workshops, geared toward helping faculty explore and develop their narrative writing skills. Narrative Medicine allows clinicians to strengthen their practice through self-awareness and exploration. By telling our stories and those of our patients, we hope to create a deeper understanding of our experiences and become better physicians.
