Developing optimum drug regimens.

In clinical pharmacological trials the determination of the optimum regimen for a drug using the technique of response surface analysis is proposed as being more advantageous than traditional analyses of dose response relationships. Major considerations in favour of this technique are that the optimum regimem can be identified with a minimum of human experimentation, and unacceptable regimens are eliminated from the study early, at a substantial saving of time and money.

Resident participation in residency programs.

Residents need to participate more fully in decisions involving their educational process and their learning/work setting. In the Department of Family Medicine at the University of Miami School of Medicine, residents are involved in designing their curriculum, monitoring their work/learning settings, selecting their peers, and evaluating their peers and faculty. This style of residency program has significant implications not only for patient care but also for future physicians, medical departments, and medical associations.

Outcomes of a faculty development fellowship in family medicine.

This report describes a comparative evaluation of outcomes of a faculty development fellowship program in family medicine at the University of North Carolina. Rates of participation in academically oriented professional behavior are compared between family physicians who participated in the program and peers who did not. Results indicate that participation in the fellowship was associated with higher rates of membership in an academic professional association, speaking to national professional meetings, publishing in professional journals, and having research as a part of one's routine work. Program participation was also associated with higher rankings being given to research and teaching residents in contrast with physicians in a comparison group. However, all family physicians surveyed for this study reported high interest and time commitment to patient care. Results are discussed in terms of the careers of academic family physicians and faculty development programs aimed at promoting such careers.
