Post-Residency Training Instead of Medical Student Research Fellowships Will Improve Dermatology Patient Care and Excellence.
Academic Article
Overview
abstract
Research fellowships among prospective dermatology residency applicants are becoming increasingly popular. These fellowships provide opportunities for mentorship, publications, and clinical experience, but unpaid positions impose a significant financial burden. We advocate for a more holistic analysis of dermatology applicants, with less emphasis on publication quantity, and propose allocating funds for post-residency fellowships in underserved areas of dermatology.
