We suggest that this concept can be applied alongside ideas of adaptive and teacher expertise to represent the medical educator of the future-the Master Adaptive Clinician Educator (MACE). The MACE is a clinician-educator leader who has specific medical education training, actively engages in ongoing education-focused skills development, and creates innovative approaches to teaching. The MACE reflects and continuously develops an educational toolbox, applies lessons from learning theories, and appropriately adapts to various learning environments. In this manuscript, we build upon recent publications outlining roles and competencies of clinician-educators by applying the MAL model; we propose a dynamic, adaptable, and well-trained expert educator who is best poised to lead future generations of medical trainees.
