Variation in research experiences, publications during medical school by sex, race, ethnicity

JAMA Network

About The Study: Researchers found in this study of 31,000 medical school graduates a significant disparity in publication rates across sex and race and ethnicity, with women and Black and Hispanic students reporting lower publication rates compared with men and white students. These findings suggest that inequities in the physician-scientist workforce began early in training, as exposure to research and research productivity are critical for a successful career as a physician-scientist.
