2018 Accomplishments
Dr. Stratton continues to serve as Assistant Dean for Quality Management in the UK COM Office of Medical Education – focusing on the expansion and implementation of a formal continuous quality improvement (CQI) program to monitor, assess, and refine the College’s education and service missions. In preparation for the College’s recent (October 2018) reaccreditation site visit, he served as: (1) co-chair of the LCME Subcommittee on Standards 1 (Mission, Planning, Organization and Integrity) and 2 (Leadership and Administration) – and was a member on two others: Standard 3 (Academic and Learning Environments) and Standards 6-8 (Curricular Objectives, Content, Management, and Evaluation). Also in the accreditation realm, he served as faculty liaison for the Independent Student Analysis (ISA) component of the LCME accreditation self-study – and was a member of the overall LCME Executive Steering Committee, the UK COM Office of Continuous Quality Improvement, and the COM representative to the main campus University Assessment Council (UAC). He is co-investigator and project evaluator (10% effort) on a newly-funded 5-year NIH (NIGMS) R25 project to enhance grant-writing and research mentorship skills among faculty at predominantly underrepresented institutions. He continues to serve on the Steering Committee of The Generalists in Medical Education (TGME) – and where he served as proposal reviewer and session moderator at the 2018 conference. He also served as peer reviewer for the Southern Group on Educational Affairs (SGEA) – as well as numerous medical education journals (e.g., Medical Education, Academic Medicine, Teaching & Learning in Medicine, etc.). He authored or co-authored three refereed journal publications – and has three more currently under review (one being a revised submission). He continues (with Jon Webb, MD) to co-precept in “Introduction to Clinical Medicine” (MD 811) and also serves as a small group leader for the inter-professional iCATS curriculum.
