The #SCOTUS decision to ban #AffirmativeAction is an injustice to our patient & families. Please remember that "class-based affirmative action" is an effective approach to increase diversity in medicine. @UCDavisCDHW

Incredible📰from one of ours @MytienTNguyen & why FGLI chapters are so critical Adjusted med school acceptance rate by income: <$50k: 24% $50k-75k: 27% $75k-125k: 30% $125k-200k: 33% >$200,000: 37% Your family income should not affect your chance of acceptance into med school

New study from @MytienTNguyen & team found that approx 1 out of 12 low-income URiM students will not be placed in a GME program upon graduation ⬇️
In our latest @JAMANetworkOpen on the leaky pathway in medicine, we found that URiM, esp low-income URiM students are significantly more likely to go UNMATCHED, even after adjusting for USMLE Step 2 scores @acgme @LmsaNational @anams1975 @SNMA @FGLIMed
