A Faculty Development Community Sharing Tools to Build Academic Leaders.
Presented by UTMB Health
The Faculty Factory is a community of faculty development leaders in academic health systems. We share a passion for serving faculty and helping them exceed their clinical, research, education, program-building, administrative, and leadership expectations.
The Faculty Factory Podcast emerged from a desire to communicate faculty-development-specific information in a consistent, modern, practical, and intimate way. This website serves as a repository for high-value conversations with expert leaders and faculty in academic health systems (visit our podcast-by-topic homepage to find episodes sorted by subject matter); a bibliography of faculty affairs and faculty development-related scholarship; links to our free e-books; and information about our coaching services.
Explore Our Virtual Caregiving Community Resources
The Virtual Caregiving Community is a passionate group of faculty members from various institutions who provide care for their older family members and spouses/partners. Since June 2023, the group has met monthly to share emotional support and practical caregiving advice. The advice and tips come from faculty caregivers who understand the systems, nomenclature, and unique nuances of working in academic medicine.
To date, these efforts have resulted in a curated list of resources, tips, and advice organized into the categories presented in the style of a “wiki” – you can explore it here.
