Abstract:
Dermatology continues to represent one of the most competitive specialties for medical students to match into for residency. The number of publications reported by applicants contributes to this competitiveness. Many students hoping to obtain a dermatology residency position are completing research fellowships (RFs) prior to applying. We conducted a survey to determine if those involved in the residency selection process recommend completion of an RF and how they view the perceived benefits of RF completion.
