Recognizing the contributions of academic medicine and observing Academic Medicine Week from June 23 through 27, 2025.
HRES 531 is a House resolution designating June 23-27, 2025, as "Academic Medicine Week" to formally recognize academic health systems, medical schools, and teaching hospitals. It highlights their roles in medical research, training healthcare professionals, providing specialized patient care, and supporting community health - citing their economic impact (contributing $728 billion to GDP in 2019) and training 70% of medical residents. The resolution does not create new laws, funding, or policy changes; it is a ceremonial acknowledgment of their contributions. It urges the public to recognize these institutions' critical role in U.S. healthcare.
