Among the results: The survey found a higher burnout rate among women; a structured mentoring program was associated with a lower rate. Elmore also presented an overview of the research at the American College of Surgeons conference in September 2015. Elmore's principal investigator for the research was assistant professor of surgery Isaiah Turnbull, MD, PhD. Elmore graduated from the School of Medicine in 2013.
