Education Research: Evaluating Racial, Ethnic, and Gender Diversity Trends in Neurology Residency Programs Between 2007 and 2020
Racially minoritized women were underrepresented among neurology applicants, and most did not show significant increases in representation as matriculants. Black men experienced the largest magnitude reduction in RQ when transitioning from applicants to matriculants. There is a need for greater professional support for applicants from historically underrepresented backgrounds to ensure their equitable recruitment into neurology.
