His responsibility involved the four years of undergraduate medical education. Once a year, he could adequately represent his medical school on the national scene at the annual meeting of the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), which was founded in 1876. Today the dean finds himself at the helm of an academic medical center comprising a complex of undergraduate medical education programs; graduate PhD programs in the basic sciences; graduate medical education with interns, residents, and fellows equal in number to the number of medical students; continuing education for physicians in the region; a multimillion dollar research program (which in many instances is multidisciplinary and multidepartmental); one or more teaching hospitals which hover on the brink of financial insolvency; a fast-changing and expanding interest of federal and state government in health affairs; expanding needs of society in SN - 0098-7484 M3 - doi: 10.1001/jama.1969.03160360043010 UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/jama.1969.03160360043010 ER -
