    Question of the Week: Suggestions for using new academic medicine in COVID-19 documentary?

    The AAMC has produced a new short documentary, “This Is What We Do,” to explore the journey of academic medicine during the COVID-19 pandemic. The story is told through the perspective of representatives—like you—from medical schools, teaching hospitals, and research institutions who share in their own words how they rose to the challenge during the global pandemic. It is our hope that this documentary is useful to you within your communities and for your own local audiences. If you have 15 minutes, please take a moment to watch the full documentary.

    Trailer:


    Is there something the AAMC can do to make this documentary more useful to you and your institution? Is there an accompanying tool or resource we can provide?
    Can you suggest to us—or to your peers on this platform—ways that this short documentary might be used to demonstrate an academic institution’s impact within their own community during the pandemic?
