title: Obstetric-gynecologic academic manpower--1986.
abstract: Full-time faculty numbers in academic departments of obstetrics-gynecology have resumed growth in the last three years, and now average 18.3 per department. Women are represented in a larger proportion than among practicing specialists. Faculty subspecialists are increasing in numbers, but their trend is toward practice rather than academic positions. Research involves 61% of the MD faculty. Chairmen predict major growth in faculty positions and in research over the next five years.
