哈佛医学院学院成立于2001年，是在美国医学院的关键时刻成立的。几十年来，医学院教师在生物医学研究和临床护理活动方面取得了巨大的增长，产生了巨大的社会效益。意想不到的后果是减少了教员的时间和对医学院独有的教育使命的奖励。现在尤其感受到了这种下降的影响，因为与医疗实践相关的科学和技术的爆炸性增长，加上医疗保健提供系统的巨大变化，要求为下一代医生的教育建立新的模式。该学院的使命是更新和振兴哈佛医学院(HMS)的教育使命。通过将学院一些最有才华和最敬业的教职员工聚集在一起，并为他们与教育相关的工作提供直接支持，该学院创建了一种独特的机制，以提高学院成员和广大教师对教学贡献的认可，促进教育创新，并为跨部门和跨机构的医学教育相关思想交流提供一个论坛。作者描述了学院的成员标准、结构、治理、活动、机构影响和长期评估计划，并指出了学院未来将面临的挑战。
The Academy at Harvard Medical School, established in 2001, was formed at a critical moment for medical schools in this country. Several decades of enormous growth in the biomedical research and clinical care activities of medical school faculty have resulted in great societal benefit. The unintended consequence has been a decline in faculty time and reward for the educational mission that is unique to a medical school. The impact of this decline is particularly felt now because the explosive growth in the science and technology relevant to medical practice, coupled with dramatic changes in the health care delivery system, calls for new models for the education of the next generation of physicians. The mission of the academy is to renew and reinvigorate the educational mission of Harvard Medical School (HMS). By bringing together a select group of some of the school's most talented and dedicated faculty and providing direct support for their work related to education, the academy has created a unique mechanism for increasing the recognition of teaching contributions of both academy members and the teaching faculty at large, fostering educational innovation, and providing a forum for the exchange of ideas related to medical education that cross departmental and institutional lines. The authors describe the academy's membership criteria, structure, governance, activities, institutional impact, and plans for long-term evaluation, and indicate challenges the academy will face in the future.
