The Association of Professors of Medicine (APM) is the organization of departments of internal medicine represented by chairs and appointed leaders at medical schools and affiliated teaching hospitals in the United States and Canada.
APM’s mission is to lead academic internal medicine, specifically in the education, research, and patient care arenas. To meet this mission,
the association provides services, training, and educational opportunities for leaders in departments of internal medicine. This focus has
allowed APM to take tremendous strides in promoting internal medicine, serving the needs of department chairs, and creating innovative
activities, programs, and initiatives.
For example, APM:
- Sponsors two meetings (APM Winter Meeting, and APM Fall Symposium).
- Provides professional development and administration (through the New Chairs Program, executive leadership program, and administrative resources).
- Supports public policy, educational, and research programs.
- Offers e-services and publications and contributes to the academic medical and internal medicine communities.
