Abstract
2004 marks the 50th anniversary of the Association of Professors of Medicine (APM)—the national organization of departments of internal medicine at the U.S. medical schools and numerous affiliated teaching hospitals as represented by chairs and appointed leaders—and presents an ideal time to review data describing medical school-based departments of internal medicine. Departments of internal medicine are a heterogeneous mix of entities as much differentiated by their approach to critical missions—educating the next generation of physicians and other health care providers; conducting groundbreaking basic, clinical, translational, and health services research; and providing excellent patient care—as they are united by the commonality of these goals. Mr. Clayton is Vice President for Policy of the Association of Professors of Medicine and the Alliance for Academic Internal Medicine Dr. Grover is a PhD candidate in the Department of Health Policy and Management in the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health. Ms. O'Connell was an intern with these organizations in summer 2003
