I'm going through my first promotion cycle and...wow. We need to talk about this.

In this episode I discuss promotion and tenure with Alan Dalkin, Vice Chair for Promotion and Tenure in the UVA Department of Medicine. We talk about what the P&T process entails (and why), key lessons from his experience ushering DOM candidates through P&T, and future directions we should move towards to make P&T more inclusive and reflective of the work we do.

Topics
- Overview of the P&T process at UVA (02:15)
- "Promotion" vs "Tenure"  and the career tracks (03:38)
- How to get the most out of your annual review (06:35)
- Does tenure mean anything anymore? (11:33)
- The common hangups for faculty going through P&T (13:05)
- What should P&T look like going forward? (17:45)
