KIPRIME podcast episode 10 - Satid Thammasitboon
Why research is the critical component for providing practical solutions to real-world problems – an interview with Satid Thammasitboon.
Satid Thammasitboon is Associate Professor in Pediatrics, division of Critical Care Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas where he serves in various academic positions promoting research and scholarship across the continuum of medical education. He’s also Director of Centre for Research Innovation and Scholarship in Health Professions Education.
Satid grew up and went to medical school in southern Thailand, and came to the US for residency, fellowship, and advanced degree in medical education.
His scholarship philosophy centers on the conviction that medical education research is socially constructed and context-specific: namely that scholarship is a product of systematic inquiry and meaningful engagement of multidisciplinary educators and scholars with shared domains of interest. To advance the field of medical education, research is the critical component for providing practical solutions to real-world problems.
In this episode of the KIPRIME podcast, Satid talks to Alina Jenkins about how he has developed a departmental foundation in innovative medical education research that has international extensions.
