Recognizing the contributions of academic medicine and observing Academic Medicine Week from June 23 through 27, 2025.

This is a non-binding House resolution recognizing the contributions of academic medicine and designating Academic Medicine Week from June 23 to June 27, 2025. It highlights the four missions of academic medicine—education and training of the health care workforce, pioneering medical research, delivering advanced patient care, and collaborating with communities to improve public health. The resolution underscores the important role of the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) and its network of medical schools, teaching hospitals, and affiliated institutions, including partnerships with NIH and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). It also points to the physician shortage and the need for ongoing, strong federal support for programs that fund medical education, research, and community health initiatives (such as Medicare support for graduate medical education and HRSA Title VII/Title VIII programs), while calling for public recognition of the sector’s impact. As a resolution, it expresses intent and guidance rather than creating new law or authorizing spending. It emphasizes that funding and support for one mission area affect the others, and it encourages continued public and federal acknowledgment of the vital role of medical schools and academic health systems in improving health nationwide.
