What has kept you busy since your days as an NHD student? Any particular challenges, stories, or achievements?<\/strong>
I\u2019ve been in clinical practice in diagnostic radiology for 10 years, having completed residency at Yale-New Haven Hospital and fellowship in women\u2019s imaging at Brigham and Women\u2019s Hospital. I always think back to the pioneering women physicians I learned about while researching my NHD paper on Dr. Bertha Van Hoosen, founder and first president of the American Medical Women\u2019s Association, who helped build the foundation for the work I do today.<\/p>\n\n

As co-chair of the caucus representing 50,000+ women physician members of the American Medical Association (AMA), I solicited and integrated opinions from diverse medical specialty representatives, to inform the policy-making process of the AMA. While serving on the Governing Council of the AMA Women Physicians Congress, I achieved a modification to existing AMA policy to help cover mammography reimbursement for breast cancer patients.<\/p>\n\n

I lecture nationally on women\u2019s imaging topics as well as the history of women in medicine, and have co-authored two acclaimed medical textbooks on breast imaging with colleagues at Brigham and Women\u2019s Hospital, Harvard Medical School. My history of medicine research continues to focus on development of childbirth anesthesia at the turn of the 20th century, and 100 years of evolution of medical care from the home to hospital.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
