Objectives. We compared faculty promotion rates by race/ethnicity across US academic medical centers.Methods. We used the Association of American Medical College's 1983 through 2000 faculty roster data to estimate median institution-specific promotion rates for assistant professor to associate professor and for associate professor to full professor.
