The growth mindset for changing medical education culture

Abstract

Medical education is exclusionary by design. In the United States, the groundwork for systemic racism in medical education was codified by the Flexner report in 1910 [1]. Despite a call for increased diversity in medicine, inadequate representation of Latino/Hispanic (6%), African American (7%), and American Indian/Alaska Natives (0.2%) continues [2]. Increasing the representation of physicians historically excluded from medicine is imperative. A more diverse workforce is a necessary step for reducing healthcare disparities and meeting a predicted shortfall of 139,000 physicians by 2033 [3].
