Listen "S6 Ep1: How are Women Impacted by Healthcare?"

Episode Synopsis

In this podcast of "Word on the Street: an OML & RRC Podcast," hosts Shelly (She/Her) and Alex (He/Him) delve into the topic of why there's a shortage of research on women in medicine. They explore the broader issue of gender inequalities that women encounter in everyday life.

Disclaimer!
Just a quick note before we dive in: throughout this podcast, I'll be using "women" and “female” interchangeably, and similarly, "men," "males," and "guys" will be used interchangeably. My discussion focuses on the gender binary.
