Designed for faculty involved in graduate medical education, this event offers valuable insights to support a more connected and effective learning environment.

We’re excited to welcome back Kiran Pandit, MD, MPH, a valued contributor to our Teaching Academy community, for another insightful session. This Lunch & Learn focuses on the art and science of peer reviewing for medical education journals—covering key principles, common pitfalls, and tips for writing reviews that are both constructive and impactful.
