In December 2018, we launched 500 Women in Medicine (500 Women In Medicine) as a satellite of the main 500 Women Scientists organization in an effort to reach more women in the medical sciences.

The goals of 500 Women In Medicine were to bring attention to the underrepresentation of women within the medical sciences and to better integrate #womeninmedicine into the 500 Women Scientists network.

Over the last year, 500 Women In Medicine has grown, created an internal leadership team, published articles, attended medical conferences, and reached out to many women across medical fields. This org has done amazing work!




If you’ve been involved in 500 Women In Medicine, you are absolutely welcome in 500 Women Scientists, in local pods, in our campaigns, and in the organization’s leadership. We want you.



Some big news: 500 Women in Medicine is fully integrating into 500 Women Scientists. Check out the blog post here for more context and next steps: medium.com/@500womenscien…

We’re going to keep this account up, but won’t be posting to it after this week, so be sure to follow 500 Women Scientists for updates!
