Representation of female surgical residents has slowly increased, but underrepresented in medicine (URiM) representation remains disappointingly low. National residency matching reports suggest that meaningful research experience improves surgical residency match success - therefore, formal funding opportunities and early mentorship for URiM medical students. In this study, we catalog medical student (MS) funding opportunities (funding type, eligibility by year, mission, compensation, length of commitment, number of awardees, and dollar investment amount per student) from 7 surgical departments (general surgery, thoracic surgery, vascular surgery, plastic surgery, otorhinolaryngology, orthopedic surgery, neurosurgery) within 196 US medical schools and 20 professional surgical educational organizations through manually searching web pages. We recorded 146 surgical funding opportunities from medical school surgical departments and 16 surgical funding opportunities from professional organizations. Overall, we find that medical institutions' surgical departments and professional surgical educational organizations may not be effectively utilizing recruitment strategies in MS funding opportunities. |
