RESOURCES AND PUBLICATIONS

Supporting the development of women in cardiology

Women As One actively develops resources and publications that aim to assist women in their careers and illuminate opportunities to improve the field of cardiology. Working with global experts and partner organizations, we produce high-quality information that advances gender equity in medicine and showcases the individual talents of our community.

Our Resources

Since our inception, Women As One has worked to identify barriers to advancing gender equity in medicine and develop digital resources to support the dissolution of those barriers. Below are a few examples of the resources we feel can make a difference in the daily lives of women in cardiology.
