Development and evaluation of a symposium model for building physician-scientist skills, connections, and persistence.
Article in JCI insight, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
High rates of physician-scientist attrition from the investigative workforce remain a significant problem despite the development of dedicated programs and initiatives designed to address the unique challenges faced by physician-scientists. However, many of these efforts are restricted to single career stages of physician-scientist training or to a single medical specialty, which may limit opportunities for beneficial vertical and horizontal mentorship regarding overcoming common career obstacles. Here, we outline the development of a physician-scientist symposium to break down silos and enable productive interactions between physician-scientists across career/training stages, academic and scientific disciplines, and medical specialties. Participants were (a) mixed in small-group problem-based discussions, (b) participated in a cross-specialty keynote panel on overcoming barriers in a physician-scientist career, and (c) took part in skill-building workshops. Attendees indicated that they fostered new connections, developed new skills to overcome career challenges, and increased their commitment to persevering in a career as a physician-scientist. Positive evaluations were not dependent on attendee career/training stage or gender. We suggest these elements of the symposium curriculum may be easily adapted for inclusion in a wide variety of physician-scientist training formats.
