Bio statement

Dr. Mayne is an Assistant Professor of Medicine in the MD Program at the College of Health Sciences, VinUniversity in Hanoi, Vietnam, where he serves as Associate Program Director. Since joining VinUniversity, Dr. Mayne has held multiple leadership roles, including inaugural Chair of Year 4, Co-Chair of Year 6, Lead of Admissions, and Associate Program Director. He has directed several undergraduate medical education courses and teaches across all six years of the MD program, with a focus on clinical skills and knowledge, clinical reasoning, and professionalism.

As a Global Health International Scholar with the University of Pennsylvania, he has played a key role in shaping the clinical curriculum through the VinUni-UPenn alliance, an area central to his academic and research pursuits. At the graduate medical education level, he has served as Co-Director of the Core Clinical Skills course for first-year residents, advised senior Internal Medicine residents on their theses, and taught regularly in the Internal Medicine residency program. Dr. Mayne earned his medical degree from NYU School of Medicine, where he also completed his residency in Internal Medicine. Following residency, he served as an Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Hospital Medicine at UCLA School of Medicine, where he taught both medical students and residents.

Recent global health projects

Dr. Mayne’s research bridges hospital medicine, medical education, and global health, combining investigation into hospital medicine practice, educational innovation, and global health challenges, with the aim of generating evidence that informs both clinical decision-making and training of the next generation of physicians. Recent projects include an investigation of provider perceptions and utilization of telemedicine across Vietnam, toward informing the integration of virtual care models into both clinical practice and medical education in low-resource contexts. Recently co-authored publications examine clerkship preparedness, clinical competency committee structures, and post-COVID curricular innovations.

This work is both scholarly and applied, as Dr. Mayne helped establish VinUniversity’s first undergraduate Clinical Competency Committee, as well as launching multiple clinical assessment initiatives, and continues to present on competency-based medical education frameworks at conferences. A more recent focus is antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Vietnam, with the aim of generating much-needed national data on the burden of AMR in Vietnam, while piloting stewardship interventions that could be scaled regionally.
