DESCRIPTION:The School of Medicine Office of Faculty Affairs and the Office
  of Faculty Development of Pediatrics along with other department’s offi
 ces of faculty development is hosting the Spotlight on Women in Medicine a
 nd Science annual symposium on March 3.\n\n2021 marked the 100th anniversa
 ry of the first woman to graduate from WUSM\, Faye Cashatt - Class of 1921
 . We have traditionally held it in the fall during the Women in Medicine m
 onth\, but that wasn’t possible therefore we have targeted March instead
  during Women’s History Month.  Due to the pandemic\, this will be a vir
 tual event.\n\nOur keynote speaker is Reshma Jagsi. Jagsi is Newman Family
  Professor and Deputy Chair in the Department of Radiation Oncology and Di
 rector of the Center for Bioethics and Social Sciences in Medicine at the 
 University of Michigan. She has been funded by the NIH\, Robert Wood Johns
 on Foundation\, and the AMA to study issues of bioethics and gender equity
  in academic medicine.  She leads the national program evaluation for the 
 Doris Duke Charitable Foundation's Fund to Retain Clinician Scientists and
  has evaluated the outcomes of the ten universities including WashU. In ad
 dition\, WUSM's Barbara Warner will speak on her work on the effects of th
 e neonatal microbiome on infant health\, and Dineo Khabele\, Chairperson o
 f OBGYN\, will speak on her research on ovarian cancer.\n\nSWIMS will conc
 lude with a panel to discuss the career journeys of our speakers and sever
 al women leaders from WUSM.
