Notice Title

Evaluating the impact of interventions aimed at addressing Differential Attainment

Notice Description

This research has two key aims: Objective 1: To identify and critically assess a range of measures that may indicate unfair variations in medical education training pathways and help to quantify the impact of interventions aimed at reducing the variations and/or improving fairness.
