ALiEM hosts multiple virtual incubators to promote the mentorship and development of chief residents, fellows, and faculty.

Academic Primer Series and Curated Collections for Educators: Important Papers for Medical Educators

Members and mentors of the inaugural, 2016-17 ALiEM Faculty Incubator authored 9 narrative reviews in the Academic Primer Series and Curated Collections for Educators on several important medical education topics, which highlight the most important literature and their defined importance for junior educators and faculty developers.
