    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Medical Education
    • Faculty Development

    Background:

    • The distribution and demographics of full-time dermatologist faculty in the United States are not well-characterized.
    • Understanding faculty placement is crucial for medical education and specialty training program development.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To survey and analyze the number, location, and demographics of full-time dermatologist faculty across U.S. medical schools and residency programs.

    Main Methods:

    • A survey was conducted to identify and count strict or geographic full-time dermatologist faculty members in the United States.
    • Data were collected on faculty location relative to dermatology residency training programs and demographic characteristics.

    Main Results:

    • A total of 338 full-time dermatologist faculty were identified.
    • Ninety-six percent of faculty were located at institutions with dermatology residency programs.
    • Schools without residency programs had minimal dermatologist faculty (3%).
    • Women comprised 7% and foreign medical graduates 9% of the faculty.
    • Over one-third of faculty trained at their current institution, and a similar proportion trained at four major institutions.

    Conclusions:

    • Full-time dermatologist faculty are concentrated in institutions with approved residency training programs.
    • Dermatology faculty distribution is heavily influenced by the presence of residency programs.
    • Demographic data indicate a need for further analysis regarding faculty diversity and training origins.
