Workforce Affinity Groups (WAG) allow for clinicians interested in similar areas to gather, collaborate, and move forward research in multi-center spanning ways with flexibility built in. ?? What are the key ingredients of Workforce Affinity Groups? ?? Community ?? Common interests ?? Accessibility ?? Collective resources and diverse expertise ?? Larger network ?? Innovation with focus on rapid, adaptive, and participatory methods Read more here: ?? https://lnkd.in/eA37JqA2 Or to put it simply: "Hospital Medicine's research, it's had its share of strife, But through affinity groups, we transform this life. Building connections, a community so grand, Research success in HM, hand in hand!" #HospitalMedicineResearch #ResearchReimagined Marisha Burden, MD, MBA Angela Keniston Areeba Kara Angela Keniston
