Ask an Expert About … Creating a More Diverse Medical Workforce
Geoffrey Young, PhD, has spent most of his career in academic medicine, both as an associate student affairs dean and an associate admissions dean, working with students from the start of their time in medical school to their graduation. At the AAMC, he is the senior director of transforming the health care workforce, focusing on creating a more diverse workforce in medicine and providing resources for students who are interested in a career in medicine. On this inaugural mini episode of “Ask an Expert,” Young talks about the work the AAMC is doing to get more diverse doctors into the field of medicine and why this is important work for the AAMC to lead.
