Moves and Milestones

Imagine Gene Jones’s surprise as he logged on to the Academic Medicine site to learn that one of the journal’s top three articles for 2007 — featured on its homepage — was his. Jones said, “I was shocked!” Jones, the editor-in-chief for the Journal of Physician Assistant Education (JPAE), added: “This is good for the PA profession and for JPAE. Academic Medicine readers’ strong interest in PA education is another sign of burgeoning global interest in the profession.

Anita Duhl Glicken, who served as interim director of the Child Health Associate PA Program at the University of Colorado at Denver and Health Sciences Center for a year and a half, will become its permanent program director. Her position will take effect on April 15.

Do you have news you'd like to share with other faculty members?
PAEA Networker's Moves and Milestones column is designed to help keep members informed about their colleagues’ activities. The column features information on faculty moves and promotions and on significant changes and achievements at member programs. Examples are faculty moving to new positions within the program or elsewhere, grants received, articles or books published, a new track or satellite campus established. We also welcome curricular innovations that may not have the research basis for peer-reviewed publication but that would be of anecdotal interest to PA faculty.

If you have news you would like to share, please send it to Eileen Evans, PAEA Networker managing editor, at eevans@PAEAonline.org; (703) 548-5538, ext. 307. News must be received by the 20th of the month for inclusion in the following month’s issue.
