Abstract

Description

The Medical School is losing ground to other institutions in the area of research. The Medical School’s ranking in National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding dropped from 15th in 1982 to 27th in 1999. The National Research Council ranking of our biomedical graduate programs dropped from the 20s in 1983 to the mid 30s in 1995. The Medical School faculty does not have a National Academy member, and only one Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator, who was recently recruited from another institution. Increased demands on clinical faculty members to spend more time on patient care and less time on research, a lack of growth in the number of Medical School faculty, lack of consistent funding for biomedical graduate programs, and a lack of incentives to retain the most productive researchers contribute to these negative trends.
