ERAS 2027 Scholarly Work Update: What IMGs Need to Know About Research?

🚨 ERAS 2027 UPDATE: The "Publications" section is officially evolving into "Scholarly Work." If you are an International Medical Graduate (IMG) applying for the 2027 Match, the old strategy of "stat-padding" your CV with low-quality papers is over. In this exclusive webinar, Dr. Jane (USMLE Sarthi Mentor) and matched applicant Dr. Lisette Luzolo Kiadidi break down exactly what Program Directors are looking for in the new ERAS format. Dr. Lisette shares her personal "IMG Match Puzzle" strategy—revealing how she used a specific combination of specialty-focused research and US clinical rotations to overcome red flags and secure her spot. 👇 IN THIS VIDEO, WE COVER: ✅ The Big Shift: Why ERAS replaced "Publications" with "Scholarly Work" and what that means for you. ✅ Myth Busting: We debunk the Top 10 Research Myths (e.g., "Does home country research count?", "Do I need to be First Author?"). ✅ The "Top 3" Rule: How to select the specific experiences that generate the best interview conversations. ✅ Hierarchy of Value: Why a Case Report might be worth more than you think, and how "Submitted" work counts. ✅ Success Strategy: Dr. Lisette’s blueprint for matching with gaps in her CV. ⏳ CHAPTERS 0:00 - Introduction & Welcome [02:15] - The New ERAS 2027 Rules: Publications vs. Scholarly Work [08:30] - Myth Busting Session: Does Home Country Research Count?
