Demographic trends and disparities among NIH-funded medical school faculty in the US, 1970–2022

Although there are efforts to recognize a broader set of metrics for a successful research career, research grant funding remains key for establishing research independence, tenure, and promotion. Thus, our findings of ongoing disparities underscore the urgent need to identify effective strategies to advance gender and racial/ethnic equity within NIH-funded medical school faculty.

Abstract

Although there are efforts to recognize a broader set of metrics for a successful research career, research grant funding remains key for establishing research independence, tenure, and promotion. Thus, our findings of ongoing disparities underscore the urgent need to identify effective strategies to advance gender and racial/ethnic equity within NIH-funded medical school faculty.
