PHILADELPHIA - Imposter syndrome is a considerable mental health challenge to many throughout higher education. It is often associated with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and self-sabotage and other traits. Researchers at the Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University wanted to learn to what extent incoming medical students displayed characteristics of imposter syndrome, and found that up to 87% of an incoming class reported a high or very high degree of imposter syndrome. Distress and mental health needs are critical issues among medical students, says Susan Rosenthal, MD, lead author of the study published in the journal
Family Medicine. This paper identifies how common imposter syndrome is, and the personality traits most associated with it, which gives us an avenue to address it.

It s the story of a Black man in Dr. Marcella Nunez-Smith s own community of New Haven, Connecticut, that illustrates why she is so determined to bridge racial health disparities.
The man had been living with chronic diseases, including diabetes, and was on dialysis. He used a wheelchair to get around.
When he developed a fever and shortness of breath last April, he tried to get tested for Covid-19, Nunez-Smith said, without success.
Within 24 hours, he was dead. Tests later confirmed he did, in fact, have SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19.
