Unpacking Diversity: LGBTQIA+ Representation among Emergency Medicine Residents

Impact: In two cohorts, 25 first-year residents completed the program and met the scholarly project requirement by the end of their first year.Two conference abstracts and one peerreviewed publication were accepted for publication, and one is currently under review.Survey responses indicated there was an increase in residents' perceived confidence of research methodology across 4 of 21 elements, but this was limited by the small sample size.There was no significant change in likelihood to pursue research during and after residency or perceived importance of research experience for their residency training.This novel resident research curriculum demonstrated a standardized, reproducible, and sustainable approach to provide residents with an immersive research experience and improve quality of scholarship produced by EM residents.
