Includes materials related to the Consortium for Faculty Development to Advance Geriatric Education (FD-AGE), established in 2004 by Duke University, John Hopkins University, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, and the University of California, Los Angeles. The goal of the FD-AGE consortium is to promote geriatrics medical education at U.S. medical schools and training programs through the development and mentoring of clinical-educators, providing mini-fellowships and on-site consultations for participants. The series also includes materials related to the Duke Geriatrics Division's curriculum on the care of older adults for medical students entitled "Clinical Core on Aging." The Clinical Core curriculum includes the Senior Mentor Program, in which students are paired with senior volunteers from the community to practice performing patient interviews and assessments. Other topics include the Arthur Vining Davis (AVD) Foundation Senior Mentor Program, the Council for Senior Citizens, the Duke Geriatric Education Center (GEC), Grand Rounds, the Hartford Foundation and the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) Geriatrics Curriculum Development grant program, the Hartford Foundation and the American Federation for Aging Research (AFAR) Academic Geriatrics Fellowship, the Hartford Foundation and the Society of General Internal Medicine (SGIM) Collaborative Center for Research, Duke's "Just for Us" program, the Duke Geriatric Workforce Enhancement Program (GWEP), and the Retired Persons Services (RPS) Geriatrics Education and Training Program.
