After going through medical school, the alarmingly low ratio of female to male-identifying radiologists becomes apparent – the proportion of female-identifying radiologists has hovered at 25% of the workforce for the past decade. Because of this, mentorship is harder to come by for women interested in the field, as well as exposure to female role models in the field, which likely perpetuates the existing gender gap. Our goal with the development of the Women in Radiology Education (WIRED) chapter at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is to help close the gender gap in the specialty through teamwork, mentorship, and outreach among women at all stages of their careers in and toward radiology – attending physician, resident physician, medical student, undergraduate, and middle/high school levels. The more women we can reach at all stages of their academic careers, the closer we believe we are to overcoming the gender gap in radiology.
