We are taking a break this week from releasing a new episode of the Faculty Factory Podcast as we enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. However, we are featuring a “classic episode” of our podcast for those that may have missed it when it originally aired.

Darrell G. Kirch, MD, is president emeritus of the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC). He served as President and CEO of the AAMC from 2006 until 2019, and was AAMC President and CEO when this interview was conducted and first published. Dr. Kirch is a psychiatrist and neuroscientist. He has held several, major leadership positions including scientific director at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH).

In April 2019, Dr. Kirch joined us for an in-depth, candid interview that we are making available today for those that may have not been a part of our audience when it first aired. This was episode No. 14 of the Faculty Factory. As we inch closer to our 100th podcast (we’re up to No. 97 as of November 20, 2020) we thought it would be fun to take a look back and share with you this classic episode.
