Sexual Harassment in Academic Medicine: A Pervasive Issue Across All Medical Specialties
We read with interest the AAMC's "State of Women in Academic Medicine 2023-2024" report,1 highlighting significant progress and ongoing challenges in gender equity within academic medicine. Key findings in anesthesiology include the following:
- Increase proportion of women chairs of academic anesthesiology departments from 13% in 2004 to 18% in 2024.
- Narrow (but present) compensation gap between men and women in our specialty, with women making $0.94 on the dollar compared to men
- Persistent presence of gender harassment within anesthesiology, with 1 in 2 women and 1 in 4 men experiencing a form of sexual harassment in the past 12 months.
Mentoring Program
AUA's mission is to promote excellence in academic anesthesiology through mentorship; promotion of diversity and inclusivity; and professional growth throughout the careers of educators, academic leaders, and researchers.
