A Story of Opportunity in American Academic Medicine
Dr Myron Weisfeldt's own story is a jumping off point for understanding elements of discovery and political skill that foster a successful leadership career in American Academic Medicine. The book is a jumping off point for understanding of the elements of discovery that lead to a successful leadership career. His work includes many examples of pioneering efforts to improve human health based on the understanding of disease. Those efforts include treatment of common heart ailments including aging and heart attacks, and prevention of sudden death and survival from sudden death. This book is concluded with a simple guide to career success that is relevant beyond medicine. The book will likely have particular value to trainees in medicine and research, physicians already on an academic career journey and an international audience wanting to understand factors leading to the prominence of American medicine.
The Vanishing Physician-Scientist?
Throughout history, physicians have played a vital role in medical discovery. These physician-scientists devote the majority of their professional effort to seeking new knowledge about health and disease through research and represent the entire continuum of biomedical investigation. They bring a unique perspective to their work and often base their scientific questions on the experience of caring for patients. Physician-scientists also effectively communicate between researchers in the "pure sciences" and practicing health care providers. Yet there has been growing concern in recent decades that, due to complex changes, physician-scientists are vanishing from the scene. In this book, leading physician-scientists and academic physicians examine the problem from a variety of perspectives: historical, demographic, scientific, cultural, sociological, and economic. They make valuable recommendations that—if heeded—should preserve and revitalize the community of physician-scientists as the profession continues to evolve and boundaries between doctors and researchers shift.

In 1983, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) sponsored the first symposium in what has become the series entitled "Frontiers in Basic Sciences That Relate to Heart, Lung, and Blood Diseases. The symposia have become a valuable forum for bringing basic researchers and clinical investigators together to exchange information about fundamental studies related to heart, lung, and blood diseases and about new approaches to clinical research. The series is meeting a long recognized need to stimulate and foster the transfer of basic research information to relevant aspects of clinical application. This symposium was the eighth in the series and the first in a commemorative series o...
