Mid-career faculty in academic pediatrics face unique challenges at this career stage. They must balance achieving national expertise in multiple areas and pursuing collaborations with colleagues while mentoring, maintaining funding, and leading teams. For many, DEI issues become more prominent in their careers, and for those from diverse background leadership opportunities become greater. The purpose and mission of this SIG are to foster ongoing mentorship, coaching, peer support, guidance in leadership development, networking, career development, and success of academic faculty who identify as mid-career. We welcome academic faculty from research/scientist, clinical educator, advocacy, and clinician scholar tracks.

 

Goals of this SIG:

  1. Provide a forum for mid-career faculty to network with each other, share ideas, and develop collaborations
  2. Create opportunities for mid-career faculty to improve supervisory and mentoring skills and to seek out opportunities to learn from senior faculty and invited speakers
  3. Enable the development of leadership in academic and DEI areas
  4. Establish programming at PAS and throughout the year related to mid-career development topics
