APSA and AMWA Begin Pilot Program for Tomorrow's Physician Survey

For the past several decades, academic institutions in the US have been faced with significant and increasing levels of attrition of medical faculty, leading to lost talent and contributions.  Via the Tomorrow’s Physician survey, APSA and AMWA are jointly surveying current MD/DO and MD-PhD/DO-PhD program trainees to identify factors that either help or hinder their advancement in academic medicine as well as to gauge career desires of future physicians and physician-scientists. By identifying these factors, APSA and AMWA will be better able to advocate for changes that will help reduce the attrition of physicians in academic medicine as well as develop policy recommendations that would go toward making academic medical careers more appealing to future generations of physicians.
