Research Bio

Constance D. Baldwin, Ph.D., earned her doctorate in English from Stanford University. Her work focuses on faculty development in the grant writing and scientific communications, curriculum and evaluation development, and faculty development in educational scholarship. She has engaged in many aspects of research education over her career. She has participated since 1985 in a series of clinical studies of otitis media. Since 1998, Dr. Baldwin has taught a yearly course for faculty and fellows entitled "Scientific Writing for Clinical Research," and given dozens of national workshops on scientific writing.



Her current research focuses on the evaluation of curricular interventions and educational programs. Specifically, she is developing and testing methods for 1) structured analysis of scientific writing, 2) educational program improvement through structured curricular planning, and 3) systematic documentation of educator productivity. She is also evaluating the effectiveness of faculty development tools and programs on the academic vitality of junior faculty, and the effects of teaching and evaluation interventions on resident performance.
