Impact
Since 1972, CDC has trained approximately 450 general preventive medicine and public health practitioners. These professionals have learned how to link their skills in clinical medicine with population-based health.
Graduates assume a variety of leadership positions at CDC, including serving as director and deputy director of the agency. They also serve in leadership roles at state/local health departments, universities, and private firms.
Preventive Medicine Grand Rounds
The Preventive Medicine Grand Rounds is a lecture series that works with PMR/F. The series focuses on applying systems-based approaches to prepare public health leaders to address major population health issues. The goal is to provide a learning forum with real life public health projects that reinforce leadership and management skills.
This series is designed for:
- Preventive medicine residents and faculty
- Public health leaders and managers
- Physicians, registered nurses, and veterinarians; and
- Health practitioners working to improve the health of populations
The final Preventive Medicine Grand Rounds session will be held on June 5, 2024.
