Abstract

Most medical/dental student respondents reported experiencing microaggressions in the clinical setting, particularly female and URM students. Our workshop mitigated most perceived challenges to responding to microaggressions. Future interventions across institutions should continue to equip students with the tools they need to address and respond to microaggressions.
