Area of Science:

  • Medical education
  • Physician-scientist training

Background:

  • Physician-scientist programs require extensive research experience, disadvantaging underrepresented groups.
  • The COVID-19 pandemic worsened this disparity by closing labs and canceling research opportunities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the impact of the Virtual Summer Research Program (VSRP) on preparing trainees for MD/DO-PhD programs.
  • To evaluate VSRP's effectiveness in supporting underrepresented trainees.

Main Methods:

  • 156 participants from historically black colleges and universities and underrepresented trainee organizations were recruited.
  • Participants were paired with faculty and MD/DO-PhD students from 35 institutions for a 4-week program.
  • The program included research projects, interactive sessions, journal clubs, and conference attendance.

Main Results:

  • Participants reported improved science skills and confidence in applying to and navigating physician-scientist training.
  • A one-year follow-up showed enhanced skill sets, long-term mentorship, and community connections.

Conclusions:

  • VSRP effectively provided mentors, skills, and resources for MD/DO-PhD applications and matriculation.
  • The program fostered longitudinal relationships and can be scaled for broader impact.
