Episode notes

Women are doing more work at home in general. We're seeing women publish less. And again, it's not because women aren't ambitious and women aren't interested. When you get 6,000 other things piled on your shoulders, it's sometimes hard to prioritize things like academic publications. Even a short amount of time where you have your bonuses frozen can actually have long term impacts on your overall ability to make X amount of dollars over a career.

Our guest on the podcast today is Dr. Shikha Jain. She has devoted her life not only to medicine but to helping women in medicine. She shares her knowledge around if the gender wage gap is real, why it exists and what we can do about it.
