She led the Research on Medical Education Outcomes (ROMEO) unit of PrMEIR, as part of the Section of Primary Care, Division of General Internal Medicine, and Department of Medicine. ROMEO is a group of dedicated cross-disciplinary researchers seeking to link education and health services research methodology to study how educational interventions lead to long-term outcomes in learners and patients. Forthe past 10 years Dr. Kalet has directed the NYU Clinical Translational Science Institute Translational Research Education and Careers Mentor Development Program (NYU CTSI TREC MDP), which prepared 15-20 researchers annually for their role in mentoring translational research. She has held the Arnold P. Gold Professor of Humanism and Professionalism, practiced and taught primary care medicine in the urban inner city, has been the PI or program director on a number of cross-disciplinary and multi-institutional curriculum development and research grants.
