    Author: Quiroga E, Gonzalez A, Newhall K, Shalhub S.
    Journal: J Vasc Surg; 2021 Aug; 74(2S):56S-63S. PubMed ID: 34303460.
    Abstract:
    Deliberate efforts are needed to address the lack of diversity in the vascular surgery workforce and to correct the current scarcity of diversity in vascular surgery leadership. Effective mentorship and sponsorship are crucial for success in academic surgery. In the present report, we have explained the importance of mentorship and sponsorship relationships for surgeons historically underrepresented in medicine, discussed the unique challenges faced by them in academic surgery, and provided a practical framework for fostering intentional and thoughtful mentor and sponsor relationships to nurture their careers.
