The ability to reflect, identify knowledge gaps, seek solutions, test solutions, and change behavior is a goal of a mature family physician. Residency programs help family medicine residents develop these mature skills which residency graduates need to support lifelong learning. The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) requires faculty and residents to participate in scholarly activity. Scholarship and inquiry can improve patient and population health outcomes at local and national levels. North American Primary Care Research Group (NAPCRG) is an international primary care research organization that promotes and supports primary care research and training in the United States, Canada, and many other countries. NAPCRG can help residency programs meet ACGME accreditation requirements and train the clinician-scholars of the future. NAPCRG works collaboratively with other organizations and programs to promote primary care research in family medicine residency programs.
