Congratulations to Judy Shea, PhD, a CHIBE-affiliated faculty member and Professor of General Internal Medicine at Perelman School of Medicine, who has been awarded the Christian R. and Mary F. Lindback Award for Distinguished Teaching from Penn. The Lindback is the University’s highest teaching honor.

Dr. Shea also serves as the Associate Dean of Medical Education Research and co-Director of the Masters of Science in Health Policy Research.

“She serves dual roles, working with faculty and fellows to design and evaluate research projects, and directing the evaluation of the medical school curriculum and faculty,” Penn Medicine stated. “Much of her work focuses on evaluating the psychometric properties of curriculum evaluation tools and developing assessment methods. She teaches and mentors trainees regularly on educational methodology and measurement principles. She has published over 300 peer-reviewed articles, many with junior colleagues.”
