Co-editors Dr. Shikha Jain and Dr. Avital O’Glasser are thrilled to announce the publication of the WIMS book, “An Evolution of Empowerment: Voices of Women in Medicine and Their Allies”!

“An Evolution of Empowerment” is a very powerful anthology of #SheforShe, #HeforShe, and #TheyforShe voices — representing the culmination of two years of collection and curation of empowered voices. The book includes over 70 authors ranging from students to physicians in practice.

“An Evolution of Empowerment” urges readers from all backgrounds to recognize the pressing need for change and growth in addressing healthcare gender inequities. The collective dialogue surrounding gender disparities in medicine has gained momentum, and it is no longer taboo to share personal stories or advocate for change. This anthology explores concepts that continue to perpetuate inequities in medicine such as the leaky pipeline, structural misogyny, gaslighting, bullying, sexism, and racism. A call to action and a source of inspiration, “An Evolution of Empowerment” is a must-read for anyone interested in the fields of medicine and science, gender equity, and social justice.
