A lack of diversity is an injustice to those excluded from the field and adversely affects the patients we serve. We obtained de-identified demographic data from the American Board of Pathology to examine the diversity of the 39,124 US pathologists certified from its founding through 2024. We focus on pathologists certified since 2006, when continuing certification was introduced and data are most complete. Female representation has steadily increased, with 53% of pathologists certified since 2006 identifying as female compared to 27% of pathologists certified earlier. Nonbinary individuals represent 0.04% of active pathologists. Among active pathologists certified in 2006 or later, 89% identify as White or Asian, and 92% identify as non-Hispanic/Latino/Spanish origin. We observed much lower female representation in clinical pathology only (39%) compared to anatomic only (52%) and anatomic and clinical (54%). Representation varies across subspecialties, with the lowest female representation in clinical informatics (25%). This work demonstrates a substantial improvement in female representation among recently certified pathologists, but the overall proportion of women with active certification remains under 50%, and women are underrepresented even among recently certified pathologists in some subspecialties. Several racial and ethnic groups (American Indian or Alaska Native, Black or African American, and Hispanic/Latino) remain severely underrepresented. This work highlights the continued need to recruit and retain a diverse workforce and ensure that all pathologists have equitable access to the full range of career trajectories in our field.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":44927,"journal":{"name":"Academic Pathology","volume":"13 2","pages":"Article 100250"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147957047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Four short-answer, free-response questions were compared with four paired multiple-choice, closed-response questions that had equivalent stems and measured the same constructs. The percentage correct responses of the paired question types were compared using chi square analysis, with a level of significance set at <em>P</em> < 0.05. Candidates were surveyed regarding the perceived difficulty of the short-answer question type, the question type that they preferred, and why the preferred question type was favored. All four short-answer items had fewer correct responses compared with their paired multiple-choice questions. The percent-correct responses for the short-answer items compared with the paired multiple-choice items, respectively, were: item 1: 73.5% vs 91.6%, item 2: 79.0% vs 90.8%, item 3: 3.3% vs 28.6%, and item 4: 64.7% vs 90.0%. All differences were statistically significant at <em>P</em> < 0.01. The short-answer questions, even when liberally graded, were much more difficult compared with the corresponding multiple-choice questions, even though the questions targeted for this evaluation were simple recall type items. The short-answer item responses raised questions about the clarity of the stem for one item, whereas the response to another item clearly disclosed a lack of understanding concerning the construct tested. The candidate survey regarding these question types disclosed an overwhelming candidate preference for multiple-choice questions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":44927,"journal":{"name":"Academic Pathology","volume":"13 2","pages":"Article 100248"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147710359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, with diminishing research and healthcare funding, coupled with proliferating regulations, recruitment has become even more challenging. These factors make it more important than ever to define best practices in AHS recruitment and may prompt the recruitment of internal candidates rather than external ones, the pursuit of philanthropic support for capacity building and start-up packages, the consolidation of academic units, and the combination of leadership positions. The specific needs will vary considerably depending on the type of position sought (e.g. “rank-and-file” faculty member, department chair, dean, academic medical center chief executive officer) as well as the specific responsibilities expected of them. Leadership roles may be particularly difficult to recruit for at this time and may appear too daunting for some potential candidates to consider. These challenges may lead to a reevaluation of roles and responsibilities, reporting relationships, and, perhaps, the redefinition of the positions themselves. The authors draw on their collective experience to define best practices in recruitment to AHS during these turbulent times.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":44927,"journal":{"name":"Academic Pathology","volume":"13 2","pages":"Article 100246"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147657715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
