As in many other fields, women are close to reaching parity in medical schools. Mentoring programs, networking opportunities, and grants for faculty with young kids have made a big difference for women at Harvard. Kathryn Rexrode (Brigham and Women’s), Nancy Tarbell (HMS), Jeffrey S. Flier (HMS dean), Galit Lahav (HMS), Ellen Grant (Boston Children’s), Martha Pitman (Mass General), Barbara McNeil (HMS), Joan Brugge (HMS) and Anne Klibanski (Mass General) are quoted.
