The Experience of General Internal Medicine Research Fellows and Program Directors: Results from a National Survey

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to investigate the experiences and outcomes of General Medicine (GM) research fellows and program directors through a national survey. They found that while fellowship training is deemed essential for developing research skills, there are notable gaps in areas such as negotiation and grant writing, and a significant portion of fellows reported symptoms of burnout. The study highlights the importance of continued investment in GM research fellowships to cultivate a robust pipeline of skilled researchers in general medicine.
