Progression of Academic Surgical Residents to Higher Academic Training and Associations With Protected Characteristics: A UK Cohort Study

The surgical IAT pathway has high attrition and unequal progression rates, especially post COVID-19. Despite gender parity in progression rates, systemic issues such as COVID-19, insufficient support and the inequalities in non-run-through training pathways hinder academic career development. Reforms are needed to address these challenges and improve the IAT pathway's effectiveness in developing a future surgical academic workforce.

Abstract

The surgical IAT pathway has high attrition and unequal progression rates, especially post COVID-19. Despite gender parity in progression rates, systemic issues such as COVID-19, insufficient support and the inequalities in non-run-through training pathways hinder academic career development. Reforms are needed to address these challenges and improve the IAT pathway's effectiveness in developing a future surgical academic workforce.
