The transition from trainee to faculty can seem daunting for many of us. Unlike clinical training, where we are taught all the relevant clinical knowledge and procedures we will need to become successful physicians, no one teaches us how to thrive as a faculty member in academia. Our guests today identified that need and have created a workshop, titled CORE2, to teach us how to have a flourishing academic career. Please join me in welcoming Drs. Nelson, Martin and Mallin to the show today.
