Dedicated Residency Research Time and Its Relationship to Urologic Career Academic Success.
2020
Abstract Objectives To explore the relationship between research time during urologic training and career academic success. Methods We included urologists graduating residency between 2002 to 2008 from 36 programs affiliated with a top 50 hospital for urology as ranked by the U.S. News and World Report, and collected research time during residency, fellowship training, current appointment (private practice, assistant professor, associate professor, professor, chair), NIH grant accrual, NIH R01 grant accrual, and current H-index in Scopus database. Publication output during and after residency was identified through the PubMed database. Results In our cohort of 543 urologists, 66.3% of graduating trainees pursued private practice. Increasing residency research time was associated with increased publication count (p Conclusions Although a minority of trainees enter academics, dedicated time for research in urologic residency is associated with career academic success, with more research time associated with increased publication output, academic appointments, and grant funding.
