Abstract

Current training curricula for future surgeons do not prioritize teaching residents how to teach. With increased expectations but decreased opportunities to operate, developing efficient and effective educators is a pressing necessity. In this article, we discuss the need to formalize the role of the surgical educator, and future directions to implement better training paradigms for surgical educators.
