In March 2015 the Practice-based Research Network (PBRN) Resource Center of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality hosted a special webinar featuring 3 articles from the 2014 *Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine* (*JABFM*) special practice-based research issue. Moderated by Rebecca Roper, MS, MPH, Director of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality PBRN Initiative, the webinar featured Drs. Larry A. Green, MD, from the University of Colorado, Denver; James J. Werner, PhD, from Case Western Reserve University; and Rebecca S. Etz, PhD, from the Virginia Commonwealth University Medical Center, who presented research based on their *JABFM* publications.1⇓–3 The discussion focused on ways in which PBRNs may improve their infrastructure, aptitude, workforce, and reputation through a variety of learning opportunities both within individual PBRNs and across PBRN consortia.
