One of the best ways to ensure sustainable success in DEI initiatives is to address these essential issues prior to and during medical school. The premedical pipeline must encourage a diverse group of medical school applicants to seek positions in medical schools where they know that they will be mentored by engaged faculty committed to DEI. Proof of this commitment is the fact that the DEI initiatives should not be independent curricular offerings but rather embedded in every aspect of the entire curriculum. In addition to faculty mentors, alumni and activated allies should be a valuable resource. These topics will be addressed by internationally renowned medical school deans, each of whom will offer examples of how to succeed and share immediately implementable toolkits and pathways to achieve these important goals.
