Abstract:
Descriptive studies regarding how to integrate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) into medical education are lacking. We utilized the AAMC's Key Steps for Assessing Institutional Culture and Climate framework to evaluate our current curriculum via listening tours (n = 34 participants) and a survey of the 10 pre-clinical block directors, to better understand the opportunities and challenges of improving DEI in the pre-clinical curriculum. Opportunities included diversifying cases and standardized patients, enhancing information on systemic racism and social determinants of health, and increasing racial humility and population genetics/epigenetics training. Faculty had issues with "correct ways" to incorporate DEI and time constraints.
