As the name suggests, SPA one-pagers are concise summaries of a topic that fit on a single sheet of paper. They are meant to be short, succinct, and to the point, with critical take-away messages. We chose a wide range of medical education, faculty development, and wellness topics to develop these open pagers. We would like to thank all the faculty who wrote and peer-reviewed these submissions. We have also included links to selected Academic Medicine Last Pages. Please let us know if you have any feedback or suggestions for additional topics. Contact Us.
