Core Competencies
The American Board of Medical Specialties (
ABMS
) and the Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) have embarked on a joint initiative to quantify and evaluate a set of 6 physician core competencies by which the individual physician will be measured for Residency Certification, Board Certification and more recently, Maintenance of Certification (MOC).
In brief the actual term “core competencies” refers to those 6 abilities (competencies) that are central (core) to the practice of medicine, specifically:Patient Care
Medical Knowledge
Practice-Based Learning and Improvement
Interpersonal and Communication Skills
Professionalism
Systems-Based PracticeDr. Sanjeet Dadwal has indicated that that the education content of this presentation will provide information and insight on Core Competencies #1 Patient Care and #2 Medical Knowledge.
The CME certificate for this activity will reflect those core competencies addressed.

NEWS & UPDATES
- Prostate cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer death among men in the United States, according to the American Cancer Society, and more than 29,000 will die of the disease this year alone. A new City of Hope study suggests those numbers could ultimately be brought down. In findings being presented today...

In the court’s majority opinion, Justice Clarence Thomas wrote: “A naturally occurring DNA segment is a product of...
- As City of Hope celebrates its 100th anniversary, we offer a four-part interview with Art Riggs, Ph.D., chair of the Department of Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases Research.

- Patients struggling to overcome blood cancers face a wider threat than just the malignant cells menacing their bodies. They also face challenging — even life-threatening — treatment side effects. For many patients undergoing bone marrow transplantation, graft versus host disease (GVHD) ranks as one of the most ...
- Though endometrial cancer is the most common gynecological cancer, there are no screening tests for the disease and only limited treatments for women whose cancer isn’t eliminated through surgery or radiation. But new City of Hope research could ultimately pave the way both for targeted treatments and screening...
- For breast cancer patients whose disease has spread to local lymph nodes, treatment may entail surgical removal of those nodes to decrease the likelihood of recurrence. But that procedure also comes with the risk of lymphedema, a painful swelling of the arm caused by retained fluids. However, findings from a re...
- Understanding how cells repair DNA damage is key to revealing the role of BRCA1 and other tumor suppressors and to overcoming chemotherapy resistance in cancer. City of Hope research just published in Nucleic Acids Research sheds light on this topic and could lead to improved therapies. Principal investigator ...
- The discovery of genes that may increase a woman’s risk of developing breast cancer has resulted in potentially powerful tools to guide care – but like all new technologies, there’s a learning curve. Many physicians surveyed for a newly released City of Hope study said that, although they feel confident orderin...
- Smita Bhatia has watched pediatric patients defeat cancer, only to see many of them grow into adult survivors confronting new deadly opponents: secondary cancers and serious health problems resulting from the lifesaving but toxic therapies they received as children. Bhatia, M.D., M.P.H., is the Ruth Ziegler Cha...

Here, lead author Yanhong Shi, Ph.D., an associate professor in the departments of Neurosciences and Radiation Biology, explains the significance of her pape...
- Each year in the United States, lung cancer kills more people than colon, breast and prostate cancers combined. When the least dangerous form of skin cancer is taken out of the equation, lung cancer is the second most-common cancer in both men and women, after prostate and breast cancer respectively. It’s also ...
