Contact Our Team

The Department of Medicine’s Academic Affairs team serves as the division’s liaison to the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine's Faculty Affairs Office, the Medical Staff Administration (or Medical Staff Office) and Northwestern Medical Group. Divisions within the Department of Medicine work with their candidates to collect all the items necessary for specific appointment transactions (including recruitment, promotion and tenure, leaves of absence and terminations) and then submit the completed paperwork to the Academic Affairs staff for review, approval by the department chair and management of the appointment process.
