It is such a pleasure to welcome you to the Early Career Physician Task Force. The Early Career Physician (ECP) Task Force is composed of physicians who have completed graduate medical training and are practicing physicians in Internal Medicine and its subspecialties. We are a group of Internal Medicine Physicians who are dedicated to enhance the professional development and quality of life for young physicians, fostering their involvement in the American College of Physician, and providing resources and support as they pursue a career in Internal Medicine. In the past, the ECP Task Force has played a significant role in advocating on behalf of young physicians. Looking forward, we hope stay true to the tripartite mission of advocating for sound public health policies, supporting improvements in patient safety & quality, and championing physician wellness. We look forward to the coming future, and hope that you will join us by becoming an active member of the Early Career Physician Task Force.
ACP Announces Travel Grants for Early Career Physician Members!
The American College of Physicians (ACP) is pleased to announce that it is now accepting applications for the ACP Travel Grants Program.
This exciting program provides $2,000 grants to selected early career ACP Members or Fellows so they may attend ACP Internal Medicine Meeting 2019. The meeting will be held from April 11 through April 13 in Philadelphia, PA. In addition to the travel grant, recipients also receive complimentary registration to the meeting.
To be eligible, an applicant must be a dues-paid Member or Fellow of the College, graduated from medical school within the last sixteen years, and living in the United States. As long as dues are paid for this current membership year, you are eligible to apply for this opportunity.
In awarding grants, priority will be given to applicants attending their first ACP Internal Medicine Meeting, physicians serving in rural or underserved communities, physicians of diverse backgrounds, and those without a significant source for CME funding.
To apply, simply complete this online application, include a 500-word essay on how attending the meeting will benefit you and the patients you serve, and attach your curriculum vitae. All materials are due by October 15, 2018.
If selected, you must agree to attend all three days of the meeting and to participate in a designated number of College activities.
I remember my first ACP meeting, and it changed my perspective about ACP. The caliber of the educational content that the meeting provides and the people involved in it are exceptional. After each annual meeting, I felt energized and inspired. I urge you to apply today so that you too can share in this experience.
