A new study presented by Teoh et al. highlights the gender inequality in urology.
Major associations consistently failed to include female urologists in their meetings, with 181 sessions led by all-male panels, and an average of 87% of male faculty members in attendance. In addition, male faculty received more opportunities to participate than female faculty in the same lower quartile of the H-index.
How can we better embrace diversity? No more manels is just the first step towards a more inclusive Urology.
