The need for increased investment in clinical research has been increasingly recognized in diverse funding programs—public, private, and philanthropic—as well as in academic medical and health centers.5 These issues were addressed by Task Force II, a group assembled by the AAMC to analyze the problems posed by the need to develop the full potential of clinical research. A number of the recommendations of Task Force II have been realized, including the requirement by the accrediting bodies of medical schools (ACME) and residency programs Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), respectively, that all medical students and all residents be exposed to the principles of clinical research; having medical schools assume central oversight of clinical research training programs in order to ensure the “protected time” of trainee; and that academic medical centers invest in shared core facilities to support translational and clinical research.
