HONOURING WOMEN
IN MEDICINE:
PRESERVING
LEGACIES,
INSPIRING
THE FUTURE
-
Throughout history,
women in medicine have played a
vital role in advancing patient care,
research, and medical education. However,
their contributions have too often been
overlooked; their names absent from the
institutions and public places that honour
those who have shaped society.
