Florida State University President Richard McCullough, in an opinion piece published in the Tallahassee Democrat, emphasized the importance of establishing Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare (TMH) as an academic medical center. McCullough wrote: 

An academic medical center is a hospital that is closely partnered with a medical school at a major research university. It combines patient care, medical education, and groundbreaking research. It is a place where physicians, scientists, and educators work together to heal patients, discover new treatments, and train the next generation of health care professionals. Academic medical centers have driven some of the greatest advancements in modern medicine.

McCullough went on to tout the partnership between the FSU College of Medicine and TMH that has existed for decades and the goal to "expand these commitments and make them even better."
