First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a program called ThriveCircle, where small groups of faculty at the University of Colorado School of Medicine meet six times over six months for guided conversations and shared meals. The goal is to see if these peer-led groups can reduce burnout and improve well-being among clinicians and scientists. About 160 faculty members will participate, and the study will measure changes using standard surveys.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, low-cost way to reduce burnout and improve community among healthcare and research faculty.
