摘要：

-OBJECTIVE: Virtual mentorship and research programs are becoming increasingly popular to facilitate education and career development for students and residents. We review virtual research initiatives for early trainees in neurosurgery and describe our effort to expand access to resources and shared objective mentorship (SOM) via the novel Neurosurgery Education and Research Virtual Group (NERVE).-METHODS: A systematic review of neurosurgical programming delivered via a virtual platform was conducted using PubMed, Embase, and Scopus data-bases. Identified articles were screened. Those meeting prespecified inclusion criteria were reviewed in full and examined for relevant data. Data analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel, and means and standard deviations were calculated. Descriptive analysis of NERVE characteristics was also performed.-RESULTS: Of the 2438 identified articles, 10 were included. The most common (70%) implementation style was a webinar-based lecture series. The least common (10%) was a longitudinal curricular interest group. Of the total NERVE cohort, 90% were first generation medical students and 82% attended in-stitutions without home programs. Survey results indicated 73.8% had contrib-uted to at least 2 research projects throughout the year.-CONCLUSIONS: There is a scarcity of virtual neurosurgical resources which facilitate SOM opportunities for trainees. In our systematic review, NERVE is the only multi-institutional virtual initiative aimed at increasing access to neuro-surgical education and research opportunities for the purpose of SOM among early trainees from disadvantaged backgrounds. This highlights the group's -iche and potential impact on increasing diversity in neurosurgery, improving trainees' career development, and facilitating future resident research productivity.
