2022 Clinicians in Quality and Innovation Academic Position Description Review

In 2012, the Department of Medicine created a new academic job description, the Clinician in Quality and Innovation (CQI). This change reflected the desire to provide an academic home for faculty whose scholarly work primarily relates to assessing and improving healthcare quality, developing innovative models of care, or pursuing other forms of innovation outside of traditional ‘discovery research’.

As the position description enters its tenth year, the Department of Medicine commissioned an independent review to examine the development of the position over time, its impacts, and challenges.

We are excited to share the culmination of these efforts in the 2022 Clinicians in Quality and Innovation Academic Position Description Review. The full report and executive summary are available on our Clinicians in Quality and Innovation webpage.
