If the applicant has determined a lack of points in certain application categories, the Fellows offers a mentorship program.

Upon request, the Fellows Chair will assign a mentor to the applicant who will assist in identification of weaknesses and how to achieve points for the application. Typically, areas of weakness include scholarly work such as presentations, published manuscripts, etc.
The AAMD Education & Research Foundation offers a year-round grant to assist AAMD Fellow applicants with costs related to meeting attendance as a presenter, research conducted for publication, and workshop attendance.
