A single-center assessment of mental health and well-being in a biomedical sciences graduate program
. To refine our survey methodology, we made adjustments to several survey measures after 2019, and these changes limit our ability to assess food insecurity, anxiety and URM student well-being measures before and after the pandemic onset. Lastly, given the small size of our graduate program, we were not able to collect a large enough sample to report details for some groups — for example, transgender or nonbinary students.
Crucially, this work was student-initiated and student-driven: this allowed peer-to-peer communication to play a role in transparently disseminating survey results and implementing an array of possible interventions. Further work is needed to replicate this work at other institutions and determine other possible factors that have influenced student mental health before and after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.
