This center was established to continue the work of Building The Next Generation of Academic Physicians. UK joined 22 other inaugural members to collectively focus on Pre-Faculty Development as a means to diversifying academia. The concept of Pre-Faculty Development is defined as “providing trainees with foundational self-efficacy, knowledge, skills, and experiences to be successfully appointed, and eventually promoted and tenured within an academic institution (Sánchez JP and Williams V, 2019.)”
