The goal of the Research Men<strong>to</strong>ring Program at Rush University Medical Center<br />
is <strong>to</strong> prepare junior faculty <strong>member</strong>s <strong>to</strong> lead independent, funded programs of<br />
translational research. To further this mission, a series of writing accountability groups<br />
was established <strong>to</strong> help mentees increase their publication productivity. We used a<br />
peer-men<strong>to</strong>ring approach <strong>to</strong> engender a sense of community among mentees. We<br />
describe the structure and process of the writing groups and initial outcomes.<br />

In 2009, the GFA Research and Project Development Committee initiated a process<br />
<strong>to</strong> stimulate collaborative projects across the GFA <strong>member</strong>ship. The review process<br />
includes: general inquiry, committee chair appraisal, template completion, committee<br />
review, and notification. The submission template includes six areas with relative<br />
weights of importance <strong>to</strong> assist the review. Seven proposals were reviewed, six<br />
endorsed, and several presented nationally. The process has resulted in advancing<br />
scholarly collaboration with the AAMC.<br />
