Abstract

Currently, there are few osteopathic physician trainees who choose to pursue pathology residencies when compared to allopathic students and international medical graduates. Although the amount of residency positions filled by osteopathic students has increased in recent years, the percentage of osteopathic students choosing pathology has not changed much from 2011 to 2022 (about 0.16% increase), and, in 2022, pathology had the third lowest percentage of filled post-graduate year 1 residency positions by osteopathic applicants when compared to fifteen other major medical specialties. Potential explanations for this disparity may include relatively few total numbers of osteopathic applicants when compared to allopathic and international medical graduate trainees, as well as potential institutional educational limitations (i.e., pathology exposure differences among academic-based versus community-based hospital settings). This review suggests ways pathologists and educational institutions may help improve pathology exposure to osteopathic physician trainees, such as pathology interest groups, post-sophomore fellowships, rotating pathology electives, and through social media (e.g., Twitter). Utilizing these (and other) pathways may help improve osteopathic physician recruitment to pathology during subsequent applicant-residency match cycles.

骨科医师培训生和病理学途径
目前,与对抗疗法学生和国际医学毕业生相比,很少有整骨医生实习生选择在病理学住院。尽管近年来整骨学生填补的住院医师职位数量有所增加,但从2011年到2022年,整骨学生选择病理学的比例没有太大变化(约增长0.16%),2022年,与其他15个主要医学专业相比,病理学在骨科申请者填补研究生一年级住院医师职位的比例排名第三。这种差异的潜在解释可能包括,与对抗疗法和国际医学研究生学员相比,整骨疗法申请人的总数相对较少,以及潜在的机构教育限制(即,基于学术和基于社区的医院环境中的病理学暴露差异)。这篇综述提出了病理学家和教育机构可以帮助改善整骨医生学员的病理学接触的方法,如病理学兴趣小组、大二后研究金、轮换病理学选修课,以及通过社交媒体(如推特)。利用这些(和其他)途径可能有助于在随后的申请人住院匹配周期中改善骨科医生的病理学招募。

期刊介绍: Academic Pathology is an open access journal sponsored by the Association of Pathology Chairs, established to give voice to the innovations in leadership and management of academic departments of Pathology. These innovations may have impact across the breadth of pathology and laboratory medicine practice. Academic Pathology addresses methods for improving patient care (clinical informatics, genomic testing and data management, lab automation, electronic health record integration, and annotate biorepositories); best practices in inter-professional clinical partnerships; innovative pedagogical approaches to medical education and educational program evaluation in pathology; models for training academic pathologists and advancing academic career development; administrative and organizational models supporting the discipline; and leadership development in academic medical centers, health systems, and other relevant venues. Intended authorship and audiences for Academic Pathology are international and reach beyond academic pathology itself, including but not limited to healthcare providers, educators, researchers, and policy-makers.
