Unplugging the Pipeline - A Call for Term Limits in Academic Medicine
Several explanations have been proposed for the "leaky pipeline" of women and underrepresented minorities in academic medicine. One factor that has yet to garner attention is the lack of term limits for senior leaders, whose numbers remain disproportionately white and male.

Gender Disparities in Invited Commentary Authorship in 2459 Medical Journals
In this case-control study of invited commentaries published in 2459 journals from January 1, 2013, through December 31, 2017, the odds of authoring an invited commentary were 21% lower for women compared with men who had similar fields of expertise and publication metrics among researchers who had been actively publishing for the median of 19 years.
Underrepresentation of Women Among Authors of Invited Commentaries in Medical Journals-Where Are the Female Editorialists?
To the growing list of gender-based disparities faced by women in academic medicine, we can add 1 more: on average, across thousands of medical journals, women with comparable credentials and experience are less likely than men to author invited commentary articles (ie, editorials).

How To Find A Mentor And Make It Work
Imagine this: Someone you admire sets aside time to meet, sharing how they accomplished their goals, cheering you on and giving you feedback and advice. That is what we call a mentor.
The right mentoring relationship can be a powerful tool for professional growth - it can lead to a new job, a promotion or even a better work-life balance.
One of the trickiest things about mentoring though, is that it's often informal, and that can make it difficult to find an entry point. Since we know that women and people of color face discrimination at higher rates than white men do in certain fields like STEM, it can be especially helpful for women and people of color to intentionally seek out mentors.
Here's how to find a good mentor, make the ask and make it work (formally).
