Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy

Endoscopy is a non-surgical medical technique used to examine a person's internal organs and vessels. This lesson will focus on two types of endoscopic studies: bronchoscopy and thoracoscopy.
Bronchoscopy
Description
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves direct visualization of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A flexible fiber optic or rigid bronchoscope is used to carry out the procedure. The fiber-optic bronchoscope is more frequently used due to...

Area of Science:

Medical Education
Biomedical Research
Residency Applications

Background:

The USMLE Step 1 transitioning to Pass/Fail in 2022 necessitates alternative metrics for residency applications.
Medical students require structured research experiences to enhance their competitiveness.

Purpose of the Study:

To describe the development and implementation of a structured program supporting medical student research.
To evaluate the program's initial outcomes and participant satisfaction.

Main Methods:

Established the Student Opportunities for Academic Achievement Through Research in Greenville (SOARinG) Program for rising second-year medical students.
Matched students with mentored summer research projects, including a seminar series and a culminating symposium.
Collected quantitative and qualitative data via surveys to assess student and mentor satisfaction.

Main Results:

Successfully implemented in summers 2021 and 2022, with 80-95% student participation.
High student satisfaction reported (69% rated experience as extremely good or very good).
Mentors indicated students were prepared but could benefit from additional skills-specific training.

Conclusions:

The SOARinG Program formalized medical student research tracking and output.
Increased student participation and generated objective research products, strengthening residency applications.
