In Academic Medicine, Chair Roles Are Changing -- as Are Recruitment Packages

About the role

While many academic medicine departments still operate in a "feudal" nature -- that is, chairs act independently and run their departments essentially as isolated small businesses -- the dynamics are shifting. Today's medical schools face tremendous pressures related to cost, accreditation, and federal funding for research. Schools are looking for new ways to support departments and new kinds of chairs to lead them.
