I can't speak for neurosurgery residencies, but there's little in the way of
integreted research in family practice residencies. The Lutheran General
program requires a research project and has a month-long rotation
incorporated into the curriculum, but most of the work needs to be done
outside the structure of the program. This is probably due to the fact that
research in Family Practice is still in its infancy overall.

Moving on to a post-residency topic--I am beginning my search for an actual
job after residency. I am looking for a combined clinical (family
practice)-academic appointment in a med. school/med school plus university
setting, where I can see patients part-time and continue my teaching and
research in medical anthropology part-time. Most recruiters do not seem to
know what to do with me or have little to offer except positions with various
residency programs. How would I go about finding a reasonable fascimile of
the above academic position? (If anyone knows of any specific openings,
please e-mail me directly.)
