Among an esteemed group of educators and faculty mentors, Dr. Essel was recognized by students for his authentic and boundless commitment to student mentorship and, in the words of one student, his ability to “model the well-rounded, empathetic, and compassionate clinician I wish to be.” As a member of the search committee, Steven Davis, MD, Assistant Dean for Student Affairs shares "it was truly a pleasure to read accounts of Dr. Essel's mentorship; your commitment to student learning and career development is inspiring."

Register: AAMC Webinar Series focused on Scholarly Publishing
Register for a monthly webinar series hosted by the editorial teams of the AAMC’s 2 peer-reviewed journals, Academic Medicine and MedEdPORTAL. Sessions will cover the importance of publishing your education scholarship and practical suggestions for how to do so successfully, and will include interactive exercises to practice what you have learned and time for Q&A with the editorial teams of Academic Medicine and/or MedEdPORTAL. While this series features the editorial teams of the AAMC’s journals, the topics and recommendations presented will also apply to other types of medical education scholarship and to submissions to other journals and publications. These sessions are open to all so please consider sharing with your peers, students, and others interested in these topics.
