Position Description:
The Department of Family and Community Medicine at the University of California Davis (UCD) School of Medicine envisions a healthier and more equitable world. In service to this vision, the mission of the Department is to advance the field of family medicine through innovative education, person-centered care, research and other forms of scholarship, community engagement, and advocacy, to improve population health and equity.
To help advance this mission, the Department of Family and Community Medicine at the UCD School of Medicine is recruiting for a highly skilled, engaging, and visionary full-time faculty member and leader in the Professorial, ClinX, HSCP or In-Residence series at the Associate or Full Professor rank, to serve as the Department’s inaugural Director of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and Community Engaged Scholarship. This position reports to the Department Chair and provides Department level leadership across all our programs and represents the Department of Family and Community Medicine in the UCD School of Medicine and in the leadership teams of community-based organizations we partner with in care and training.
Faculty in the Clinical X series are expected to engage in professional competence and activity, teaching, research and creative work, and University/public service. Faculty in the Health Sciences Clinical Professor series are expected to engage in teaching, professional competence and activity, scholarly or creative activities, and University/public service. Faculty in the In-Residence/Professorial series are expected to engage in teaching, independent research and creative work, demonstrate professional competence and activity, and provide University and public service.
The Department of Family and Community Medicine is located on the UCD Health campus in Sacramento, California, and headquartered at the UCD School of Medicine, which US News and World Report ranked #3 nationally for student diversity, #5 for family medicine, and #6 for primary care in 2023. The Department includes 22 faculty physicians (7 in research-oriented positions), 6 staff physicians, and 42 resident physicians. We are a diverse group of clinicians, educators, and scholars who strive to deliver outstanding care to all our patients, improve the way primary care is provided, and educate the next generation of clinicians including family physicians, all pursued through an equity lens.
Under the leadership of Department Chair Anthony Jerant, MD, the Department of Family and Community Medicine is in an exciting phase of its 50-year history at a time of rapid transformation in healthcare. Known for outstanding education, clinical care, and ground-breaking research, the Department also has had longstanding and meaningful engagement with DEI and antiracism efforts, a sampling of which are summarized on the Department website: https://health.ucdavis.edu/family-medicine/about/dei/. There is also broad recognition among our Department members that there is much more work to do in these aspects, and strong commitment to further growth and continual improvement in this realm as a way of being, informing all of our endeavors. The inaugural Director of DEI and Community Engaged Scholarship will be the key Departmental agent providing vision and leadership to successfully pursue this approach.
We are in Sacramento, the capitol of trend-setting California - a highly diverse and growing community (metropolitan area population 2.4 million), and a great place to live and work. The city and its surrounding communities are booming with many cultural activities, world-renown farm to table dining, and a plethora of outdoor activities to enjoy. Over the past 6 years, the Department has greatly expanded its presence in the local community. In the realm of research and scholarship, several faculty members who are MD/PhD trained medical anthropologists are pursuing exciting community-engaged research, leveraging UC Davis resources such as the Public Scholarship and Engagement and Health Equity Resources and Outreach (HERO) programs. Further, with Department leadership, financial, and administrative support, the MD/PhD faculty have launched a Social Medicine Symposium series to build community, increase collaboration, and support training among faculty, students, trainees, and scholars with expertise in health-related social sciences and humanities locally and beyond, and to help in pursuing the eventual establishment of a Social Medicine Center at UC Davis.
Our faculty are both productive and impactful in their published research and scholarship: according to the latest UCD School of Medicine Publication Metrics Report, from 2017 to 2022, collectively our faculty had 115 peer-reviewed publications indexed in SciVal and/or Scopus (with 1755 total citations, an average of 16 citations per document). 38% of these articles are in the top 10 most cited journals in the field and 20% of publications are among top 10% most cited articles in the field worldwide. Much of this work is focused on addressing disparities in health and healthcare and social influences on health: https://health.ucdavis.edu/family-medicine/research/research-faculty.
In the clinical and clinical training realms, the Department has forged several mutually beneficial and successful clinical and training relationships with partner organizations, including three federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) (two of which are ACGME-approved continuity training sites for our residents), and has continued its longstanding relationship with the local Veteran’s Administration medical center. These partnerships are designed both to ensure excellent training of our students and residents in caring for underserved and vulnerable patients most in need of care, and to improve the health of individuals, families, and communities locally, regionally, and beyond.
