    Some UC San Francisco health internships require support for DEI

    Doctor says the UCSF action just furthers politicization of the medical industry.

    The University of California at San Francisco just ran a list of student jobs in the field of health care that call for help for variety, capital, and participation.

    Despite the University of California regents ‘ selection in March to close DEI statements for new university hires, the condition is also mentioned on the apprenticeship webpages.

    The need may restrict students ‘ access to research activities in the medical field as well as intellectual diversity in academia, two outside medical researchers added.

    Candidates for one apprenticeship through the open school’s Advancing New Standards In Reproductive Health system must submit a written statement about their responsibility to “diversity.”

    The Department of Midwifery, Gynecology & Reproductive Sciences and the UCSF’s Bixby Center for Global Reproductive Health, a research-focused system, are both integrated into the apprenticeship program. In the summer and fall, it is looking for three students to enable upgrade its Pregnancy Center Database in the fields of public health, epidemiology, sociology, or related fields. The program date is never mentioned.

    According to the job description, student volunteers will carry “mystery names” to abortion services to gather information about their services that are” not available online” and” conduct a comprehensive online research based on established technique.”

    According to its website, the database is” an online map and data resource that provides a picture of the abortion clinic landscape at the state, regional, and national levels” and is” an online resource for information and data.

    According to the university website, students must submit a” Contributions to Diversity Statement” that outlines the applicant’s” commitment to an intersectional framework” in order to be eligible for the internship.

    Students are supposed to state their commitment to socioeconomic and racial/ethnic justice in the statement as well as their awareness of the “inégalités and challenges faced by people of color or economically disadvantaged groups.”

    These internships demonstrate the university’s desire to promote abortion.

    Science becomes an even more important anchor in the protection of abortion rights and access, according to UCSF public health professor Ushma Upadhyay’s most recent post on the program’s X account.

    Medical students are also required to submit a” statement on your potential contributions to diversity” for a second set of internships through UCSF’s Division of Hospital Medicine.

    A” Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Internship” and a” Joint Quality Improvement + Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Internship” are two of the summer positions available.

    For a third” Quality Improvement” internship listed on the website, the diversity statement is “optional.”

    Prior to the university’s announcement about ending DEI hiring statements, applications for these internships were due in February.

    The Fix contacted the university’s media relations department three times in the last two weeks to inquire about the internships, but they did not receive a response. The University was questioned by The Fix about how the university would strike a balance between promoting diversity values and ideological diversity, and whether some beliefs would prevent applicants from enlisting in internship programs.

    According to a medical expert who spoke with The Fix, DEI assertions combine politics and medical care.

    According to Dr. Kurt Miceli, medical director for Do Not Harm, a coalition of medical professionals who support the exclusion of identity politics in medicine,” Unfortunately, DEI requirements that emphasize ideological conformity or political commitments are, by design, exclusionary.”

    Miceli claimed that “UCSF’s initiative only furthers politicization of the medical field.” ” Politicization in the medical field negatively impacts student access to research and development projects.”

    A prominent pro-life physician also expressed concern about the ideological requirement.

    Dr. Christina Francis, CEO of the American Association of Pro-Life OBGYNs, said it’s important that research institutions and medical schools take into account the range of viewpoints and opinions that medical students and researchers may have on subjects like induced abortion, and that qualified candidates not be cut out because they don’t hold a certain political viewpoint.

    ” We have seen more and more academic and medical institutions stifle the work of pro-life researchers and medical students. This trend will hinder our ability to create medical innovations that are beneficial to all people, Francis stated in a recent interview.

    In response to a Trump administration” Dear Colleague” letter, which claimed such programs may violate Title VI, a number of universities have recently ended DEI hiring statements and closed DEI offices. According to previous reports from The Fix, higher education institutions could lose federal funding if they engage in discriminatory behavior.
