The Crisis We Face
Medical student burnout more than doubles during training—from 29% to 64%. Nearly half of students (48%) sometimes or often feel they don’t belong. The hidden cost? Lost persistence compromised well-being, and future physicians questioning their calling.
The Solution:
Evidence-Based Training
The Resilient Mindsets in Medicine course is grounded in motivation science and validated by the largest well-being survey in osteopathic medical education history—7,129 students across all osteopathic medical schools (72% response rate). Our research shows that learning mindsets are strongly associated with student well-being and inversely related to burnout.
