The Core Content Review of Family Medicine, a national home-study CME Program and ABFM Board Review Course, is seeking individuals to author questions and discussions for one of the most successful Home Study CME Programs in the country.  Core Content is developed by the Connecticut Academy of Family Physicians and the Ohio Academy of Family Physicians. 

• Question format mirrors the ABFM Board exam and discussions are approximately 300 words.  Up-to-date reference material must be provided.    
• Authors must have good computer skills.  Editors will provide feedback.    
• Many Residency programs have their residents in conjunction with a faculty member write questions and this is often used to fulfill their scholarly activities.  Faculty may also claim CME credit for this activity.    
• Authors who provide material acceptable for publication will be included on the Author Page of the edition in which their material appears.     
• Core Content Review is a peer-reviewed publication and authors may include authorship on their CVs.    
• Compensation will be provided on a per question basis.

CORE is also looking for physicians to submit photographs

or interesting cases that you may see in your practice. 

• If you have taken a photograph where the patient could be clearly identified, you must obtain a release for publication signed by the patient or the patient's parent or guardian. A release form may be obtained from the Executive Office.  If the patient cannot be identified in the photograph, no release is needed. Photographs should be submitted in .jpg. .tif, or .png format.
