Individual Voices, Collective Impact: Advocating for Excellence in Academic Medicine

The 2026 SGIM Annual Meeting in D.C. highlights our role as advocates in promoting excellence in academic general internal medicine. When we utilize our individual voices to advocate for patients, trainees, areas of inquiry, and profession, the collective impact of our work has profound influence beyond local institutions and communities. By focusing on excellence in all of our roles, we can elevate SGIM’s vision of improved health for all people.
