The AGS is seeking new question authors for the 13th edition of the Geriatrics Review Syllabus.
Qualifications
· Strong writing skills
· Question writing experience
· Expertise in the topic
Details
Question authors selected will work along with a GRS Editor who will oversee the development of the questions. Work will consist of reviewing and updating existing questions, as well as the creation of new questions.
Questions authors will be required to review GRS question writing materials and a NBME online tutorial before beginning the writing process.
Work will begin immediately, with first drafts due by September 15th, 2026.
Question authors will be acknowledged in the final program and receive a complimentary GRS13 digital subscription upon publication. (Fellows may assist in question writing, but the final responsibility remains with the faculty member, and the individual receiving acknowledgement in the GRS will be designated by the faculty member.)
Application process
If interested, please submit your application consideration by May 8, 2026. Please provide your CV, relevant experience, and top topics of interest to increase the likelihood of matching a need.
