What does Academic medicine mean? I've looked online and it said a mix of clinical medicine, teaching, and research. Would talking about tutoring and TA roles I had answer this question, or do I need to also talk about research?

Also, does academic medicine relate to pre-clinical teaching in classrooms, or having med students rounding with you?

Hi! so academic medicine could either be more clinically focused (where you spend the majority of your time seeing patients and then you also teach residents and other trainees, with some research), or it could also involve more research (think physician-scientist / physician-investigator). Depending on which of these two paths you are headed towards, it may or may not be necessary to talk about research. I am more towards the second option, so I ended up discussing my research and a bit of my teaching experience. I’ll let someone else who has more knowledge about your second question answer it. Hope this helps!
