About
 In 1970, the University of Minnesota created the Department of Family Medicine and Community Health in response to a legislative mandate to train primary care physicians. Since then, the department has worked to transform and renew the specialty through education, research and scholarship, and patient care. Education Our residency programs and medical student education activities place a strong focus on creating innovative didactic and practice experiences. Research and Scholarship We are working to improve how we deliver patient-centered care in the context of community through research and scholarship. Patient Care We have modified our practices to include more team-based care and integrated mental health services and are evaluating patient complexity resulting from language and cultural barriers.
