Academic Medicine

Academic medicine combines clinical practice with research and/or education and can lead to a career in universities, the National Health Service and within industry.

Information on developing a career in medical science either as a health professional or biomedical scientist is available at the Academic Medicine web site. The site is provided by the Academy of Medical Sciences.

If you are interested in following developments in medical education then a good starting point is the Association for the Study of Medical Education where you can learn about the proposals to establish The Academy of Medical Educators.
