The Women in Medicine and Science Advisory Committee, established in 2016, meets monthly to identify areas for collaborative efforts, priorities for educational sessions, and to develop ideas around how the Inclusion and Culture Development Office can be most helpful both globally and at the departmental level throughout the medical center.
