Your gift can help support our\u00a0vital mission.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #5a5a5e\">Faculty Support:<br \/>\n<em>Provide funding to recruit and retain the best medical faculty<\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #5a5a5e\">The Department of Medicine seeks funding for endowed professorships to recruit outstanding faculty in internal medicine and its related disciplines: allergy, cardiology, endocrinology, gastroenterology\/hepatology, geriatrics, infectious diseases, nephrology, palliative care,\u00a0and pulmonary and critical care medicine.\u00a0Endowed chairs help UVA compete with other universities for exceptional faculty, and recognize and reward professors who are leaders in research or teaching. The need for faculty support is particularly acute given the growing shortages of physicians nationwide &#8212; particularly in internal and general medicine &#8212;\u00a0and the intense competition to attract top-notch faculty\u00a0in\u00a0these fields.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #5a5a5e\">Clinical and Basic Research:<br \/>\n<em>Support the search for new cures and treatments of diseases<\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #5a5a5e\">Gifts to the Department of Medicine to support research, particularly seed funding, will help the department open doors to innovative new therapies and cures. Federal and state grant funding is highly competitive and has declined significantly over the past decade; research support fosters innovation that makes government funding more likely down the road. The department\u2019s clinical research priorities include cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and hematology and oncology.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #5a5a5e\">Graduate Education:<br \/>\n<em>Support the Internal Medicine Residency Program<\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #5a5a5e\">The department&#8217;s three-year Internal Medicine Residency Program, which admits approximately 30 MDs each year, has a long tradition of developing physicians of the highest caliber who excel in all aspects of research and patient care.\u00a0As\u00a0one of the top internal medicine residency programs in the nation, it attracts a large number of highly competitive applicants from across the country. To keep the residency\u00a0program strong, funding is needed to support\u00a0scholarships, mentoring programs\u00a0and innovative new models for clinical training.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span
