Abstract

To recruit and train the next generations of pediatric clinician-scientists, the American Pediatric Society and Society for Pediatric Research initiated a program in 1991 to support medical students with interests in research and pediatrics to conduct research at institutions other than their respective medical schools. Since 1991, the American Pediatric Society-Society for Pediatric Research Medical Student Research Program (MSRP) has funded 732 of 2209 applicants from 132 US or Canadian medical schools for 8-12 wk of research under the direction of experienced investigators. PubMed-attributable publications tabulated in 2001 for MSRP applicants through 2000 indicated that participants had published more actively than had nonparticipant applicants. Male nonparticipants exhibited greater publication activities than did female nonparticipants, but female and male participants published equally. Of all MSRP participants between 1991 and 1996, as of 2008, 36% were in pediatrics, and a remarkable 29% were in academic pediatrics.
