It highlights how overlapping identities can shape how doctors are perceived, supported, and assessed within training environments.Fri, 28 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0100https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/epdf/10.1080/0142159X.2022.2039383?needAccess=truehttps://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12963789/pdf/cureus-0018-00000104746.pdfNeurodiverse junior doctors represent an underutilized yet highly valuable component of the medical workforce. Their cognitive diversity enriches diagnostic reasoning, innovation, and empathy.
