"The AAMC celebrates International Women's Day by recognizing women in history who've made significant contributions to the medical field."
"Medical education and health care have evolved immensely thanks to the many successes of women in the field. 'The power and impact of women in medicine cannot be overestimated!' says Melvina McCabe, MD, professor emeritus of family medicine at the University of New Mexico School of Medicine. 'Our women of color in particular, serve a critical role in medicine. The younger generation of future health care providers, both women and men, only need to look at the path that has been carved by all of our women in medicine to understand this. In addition to intellectual equality that women of medicine possess, the path that women have taken and carved is lined with persistence, love, resilience, wisdom, empathy, strength, and polyphony.'"
