Dr. Raluca Coyle History Lecture

The talk, titled “Women in Medicine: What is the Current Demographic Situation?”, examines the representation of women in the medical field at the national, state, and county levels. Over the past three decades, the percentage of women physicians in the United States has increased from 8% to 25%, with projections suggesting that women could make up half of all physicians in the next 20 years. This significant increase is expected to greatly impact the medical workforce.
