Physician Careers: Academic Medical Centers - Dr. Peter Slavin (MD/MBA 8th AMMP Conference)

Here's a video of a presentation given by Dr. Peter Slavin at the 8th Annual AMMP conference titled, "Physician Careers: Academic Medical Centers." I blogged about his presentation (here) back in April when I was in Boston attending the Association of MD/MBA Programs (AMMP) 8th Annual Conference.

Now, you can view a video of his presentation and slides here (you'll need Microsoft Silverlight to play the video).
