Recent tragedies have displayed systemic inequities in our society. Our institution has created a program for underrepresented high school students in our surgical simulation lab. The students have responded very favorably, and their interest in a surgical career and self-confidence increased significantly.
近期的悲剧事件揭示了我们社会中存在的系统性不平等现象。我们的机构在手术模拟实验室为代表性不足的高中生设立了一个项目。学生们对此反响非常积极,他们对外科职业的兴趣和自信心显著增强。
