Academic professionals.
Faculty at medical schools form a unique group of people. While they are clearly academics many of them also serve in a dual role as professionals. There are some medical school faculty, however, who do not fit this role. This paper explores the definition of 'professional' and discusses some of the conflicts that may develop when academic professionals are mixed with academic non-professionals and with practitioners.
