Med Book Club ๐๐ Shikha Jain MD, FACP Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) Good morning from Tampa ๐ด Finding joy in seeing our #WIMSbook featured on #MedBookClub
Q2: The editors & authors of the book champion "non-traditional scholarship" in medicine - have you ever created any non-traditional scholarship? If not, why? #MedBookClub Women In Medicineยฎ Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) Shikha Jain MD, FACP
Med Book Club ๐๐ Shikha Jain MD, FACP Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) Hello! Joe from Buffalo here. This month and always, I find joy in seeing my badass women colleagues make strides, and do my best to support those efforts! #HeForShe #WomensHistoryMonth
Med Book Club ๐๐ Women In Medicineยฎ Shikha Jain MD, FACP Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) #MedBookClub A1: The past couple years, as Iโve made more of an effort to listen to and pay attention to my women colleagues and their efforts and struggles, one of the most consistent statements is the movement away from Hollow messaging and cheerleading, and toward real change,
Med Book Club ๐๐ Women In Medicineยฎ Shikha Jain MD, FACP Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) #MedBookClub A1b: the work toward getting women into the rooms where it happens, getting men on board as allies, and tearing the legs out from the myths about why women earn less to focus on the fact that they do.
Med Book Club ๐๐ Women In Medicineยฎ Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) Shikha Jain MD, FACP #MedBookClub A2: I have the privilege of being involved in this particular non-traditional scholarship as an author of one of the essays. Non-traditional is a powerful alignment these days, as we discover how many traditions are rooted in misogyny, and work to change them.
Med Book Club ๐๐ Women In Medicineยฎ Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) Shikha Jain MD, FACP A2: yes! As one of the contributing authors, #WIMSbook and blog have been one platform where Iโve been able to disseminate writing that has a narrative or advocacy focus - much of my scholarly work is in these non traditional spaces #medbookclub
Q3: What topic are you inspired to write about based on this book? #MedBookClub Women In Medicineยฎ Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) Shikha Jain MD, FACP
Med Book Club ๐๐ Women In Medicineยฎ Shikha Jain MD, FACP Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) A1: This book features the voices of women at all career stages sharing past and present experiences. It celebrates all of us and shows how we are #WIMStrongerTogether #WIMSBook
Med Book Club ๐๐ Women In Medicineยฎ Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) Shikha Jain MD, FACP A3: the women in medicine affinity group we started USF Internal Medicine Residency #MedBookClub
Q4: Cassandra - as a character and a metaphor - makes multiple appearances throughout the book. What does Cassandra mean to you in 2024? #MedBookClub Women In Medicineยฎ Shikha Jain MD, FACP Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her)
Q5: In addition to essays/nonfiction, the book includes fiction, narrative, and even satire about gender equity. How do these expand the discussion? #MedBookClub Women In Medicineยฎ Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) Shikha Jain MD, FACP
Med Book Club ๐๐ Women In Medicineยฎ Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) Shikha Jain MD, FACP A5: the variety of styles increases the number of entry points to join the conversation, increases the likelihood readers will find something they resonate with #MedBookClub
Med Book Club ๐๐ Women In Medicineยฎ Shikha Jain MD, FACP Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) #MedBookClub A4: Cassandraโs roots may be deep in history/legend, sheโs one of those things that shouldnโt be as relevant as she is today. Almost every #WomanInMedicine has a moment where her idea wasnโt heard/heeded. Too many dudes are in denial about that bc we donโt listen.
Med Book Club ๐๐ Women In Medicineยฎ Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) Shikha Jain MD, FACP #MedBookClub A5: I love the variety. This discussion needs to be everywhere until it is understood everywhere, and to reach everyone we need multiple angles. Outside of the book itself, book club discussions like this, speeches, political motions - all are necessary fronts.
Q6: Inspired by the book what does advocacy BY women mean to you? #MedBookClub Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) Shikha Jain MD, FACP
Q7: Inspired by the #HeForShe and #TheyForShe ally writers in the book, what does advocacy FOR women mean to you? Avital Y. O'Glasser, MD FACP SFHM DFPM (she/her) Shikha Jain MD, FACP
