Women represent only 12% to 25% of cardiac and thoracic surgeons respectively. Our new perspective 📝 in @annalsthorsurg delves into professional development opportunities & resources for women across all career stages (med school ➡️ attending) in CT surgery.

Specifically, we highlight:
1️⃣ Targeted, action-oriented guidance for each stage of one’s career
2️⃣ National grants & awards across many surgical societies
3️⃣ Checklists of general and gender-specific considerations/advice for medical students & residents
