ASH Medical Educators Institute

At the conclusion of the program, participants are able to design and execute a scholarly project in hematology medical education, as well as implement additional techniques in their teaching of medical trainees.

ASH welcomes all ASH members to register for the upcoming Medical Educators Institute webinars or to view them independently. These webinars are designed to supplement the MEI curriculum by covering the medical educator core competencies not addressed during the in-person workshop.

The ASH Medical Educators Institute is open to fellows and faculty in North America (United States, Canada, and Mexico) who see medical education as a major part of their professional roles. Applicants must be ASH members in good standing.

The Medical Educators Institute application, as well as all supporting documents outlined below, must be submitted through ASH's online awards portal. All applications must include a project proposal and references, as well as the applicant's career-development plan.

See permitted project topics for the MEI program between 2016 and 2020.

Each application will be reviewed by multiple reviewers. Applications will be evaluated according to the applicant’s insight into modern issues in medical education as demonstrated by the project proposal, and the strength of institutional and mentor support for the applicant.

Each applicant will submit the outline of a project in medical education as a part of the application. By applying to the program, applicants agree to provide ASH with a copy of the outcome of that scholarly effort to share with the hematology education community via the ASH website if requested.
