Sex, Race, and Ethnicity in Academic Dermatology in the United States: A Longitudinal Analysis
Despite these increasing trends, in 2021, the most recent year for which data were provided, there remained a far greater proportion of male and/or White physicians in senior academic ranks (65.35% male and 75.85% White professors), leadership positions (79.52% male and 66.27% White chairpersons), and tenure (67.17% male and 77.78% White). Although there have been efforts to improve diversity and inclusion in academic dermatology over the 56-year study period, sex and racial/ethnic disparities persist.
