Abstract/Description
In 2026, the AAMC marks 150 years of advancing academic medicine, demonstrated in an interactive history timeline titled "The AAMC and Academic Medicine: A Legacy of Learning, A Future of Healing." The timeline highlights key milestones that have shaped medical education, biomedical research, clinical care, and advocacy since 1876, reflecting the collective impact of AAMC constituents and collaborators across generations. The launch of the FRAHME initiative in 2017 is noted as an effort to integrate arts and humanities into medicine, fostering empathy, reflection, and humanistic care.
