Submit resident nomination for AAMC-ORR


AADPRT is one of the eligible members of the AAMC's Council of Faculty and Academic Societies invited to appoint two (2) residents to serve in the Organization of Resident Representatives (ORR). The ORR provides a resident voice on AAMC policy and offers leadership and professional development for those interested in academic medicine.



Please nominate one of your active (involved and invested) and academic-oriented, resident leaders for consideration to serve for the July, 2026 - June, 2028 term. Concurrently serving society appointees should be enrolled at different institutions, so we cannot accept nominations from Duke University or Massachusetts General Hospital.
