Summary:Abstract This is one of six short papers that describe additional innovations to help integrate public health into medical education; these were featured in the “Patients and Populations: Public Health in Medical Education” conference. They represent relatively new endeavors or curricular components that had not been explored in prior publications. Although evaluation data are lacking, it was considered to be of value to medical educators to share a brief description of the collaboration between the Division of Preventive, Occupational, and Aerospace Medicine and the Department of Pediatrics at Mayo Clinic to integrate a preventive medicine–public health curriculum into the pediatric residency.
