In the summer of 2003, Dr. Tripler was selected as a Dean's Teaching Fellow, a program to develop "master educators" with an emphasis on "leadership skills in academic medicine".
His other areas of interest include evidence-based medicine, proper medication use, patient safety, and learning portfolios.
