Co-leads the Women and Medicine Commission in advancing its mission and supporting SGIM’s strategic priorities. The Women and Medicine Commission (WAMC) strives to improve the health of women and to advance the academic careers of women in medicine. The commission’s four-part mission is to: (1) promote women’s health as a generalist issue in clinical practice, research, and health policy; (2) facilitate communication among SGIM’s interest groups related to women’s and gender-based health; (3) advance gender equity among medical faculty; and (4) represent SGIM’s commitment to women’s health research, equitable clinical care, and freedom from harassment in the workplace. New members are sought who are interested in advancing one of these four priorities.
