New Publication: Academic Medicine Investment in Medical Research
A new AAMC publication, Academic Medicine Investment in Medical Research, presents findings on the comprehensive investment in medical research across 46 medical schools surveyed. The average medical school investment in 2013 was an additional $0.53 for each dollar of sponsored research received. This accounted for an average investment of $111 million per medical school. The findings demonstrate the substantial investments from academic medicine while illustrating the growing gap in financial support that puts medical research at risk with the absence of predictable, consistent, and sustainable federal funding.
For more information about Academic Medicine Investment in Medical Research, please contact Alex Ommaya, senior director, clinical effectiveness and implementation research, at akommaya@aamc.org or (202) 741-5520.
