CGEA MESRE Virtual Office Hours - 2025
In an effort to promote medical education scholarship, the CGEA Medical Education Scholarship Research and Evaluation (MESRE) group provides MESRE Virtual Office Hours for CGEA members. The virtual office hours provide consultations and mentoring for CGEA members (especially early career) who plan and conduct research or innovation projects in education. If you ever have some questions like those below, we can help!
● Incubating a project idea. Is this project idea making sense? Is this something that people would like to know in the field?
● Identifying a question: What specific question should I pursue to conduct a research or program evaluation study?
● Literature review: How can I strengthen my rationale for the study? What theoretical or conceptual framework should I consider for my study?
● Study design: What methodology should I consider for my project? How can I do the data collection and analysis process? What should I consider for methodological rigor?
● Dissemination: What journals/conferences should I consider for submission? How can I address reviewers’ comments on my manuscript in a revision?
● Other: Any questions about medical education research and scholarship. How I can start with medical education research?
Interested in getting feedback on your educational grant proposal? Sign up for a one-on-one consultation with a CGEA MESRE member! Consultations are available at various times. Sign up here to reserve a slot. After signing up, please send a brief summary of your project to Rachel Moquin at rachel.moquin@case.edu at least one week prior to your consultation.
2025 CGEA MESRE Collaborative Grant Call for Proposals
The Central Group on Educational Affairs (CGEA) invites proposals for the 2025 MESRE Collaborative Grant program. This initiative supports scholarship in medical education and strengthens the CGEA community of educational scholars. Funding opportunities have expanded with up to $10,000 available for multi-institutional projects and up to $7,000 available for single-institution projects. Projects must focus on the education of medical learners. Scholarship may include discovery, teaching, application, integration, engagement, or scholarly innovations. All funded projects must be collaborative, investigative, and result in work that is publicly shared and available for peer review. Proposals are due August 15, 2025. View full details and submit your proposal. All other inquiries about the collaborative grant program should be addressed to the CGEA MESRE Chair, Kelli Qua (kxr269@case.edu), AND the CGEA Chair, Komal Kochhar (kkochhar@iu.edu).
