How to Publish Your Medical Education Research and Innovations*
Date: September 14, 2025
Time: 7:30 am to 9:00 am
Track: Professional Development Workshop - Early Career & Early to Mid-Career-Level Course
Session Description
Clinician educators often have new ideas for teaching, evaluating or designing innovative curricula. It is important to promote and disseminate these ideas so that others can learn from novel and successful educational interventions. Unlike traditional clinical or bench research, there is often limited understanding about getting educational research published in academic journals. This session will discuss challenges to education scholarship, and strategies to overcome them and increase the likelihood of acceptance of educational articles.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this session, attendees should be able to:
- Cite the key elements involved with designing a medical education research project.
- Summarize the key features of qualitative research and identify how to integrate them into qualitative research studies.
- Identify ways in which medical education research projects can be made more innovative to allow for successful publication.
