Minority Barriers in Anesthesia

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Minority Barrier, Lack of Mentoring Program, Pass Over for Promotion

In brief

The investigators aim to survey members of the ASA (medical students, residents, and attendings) who self-identify as minorities to assess if there are systemic barriers to minorities pursuing leadership positions. The investigators hypothesize that structural issues such as a lack of formalized mentoring programs play a role in reduced minority professional advancement.
