    #Emory CT surgery - 5 cardiac surgeons are women and July we will add a thoracic surgeon to the mix. We need to keep taking about this - but I look forward to the day it is so common for women to be Cardiothoracic Surgeons that it no longer makes the news
    More than 50% of medical school students are women, but there’s still a gender gap in some of the top specialties. Only 8% of thoracic surgeons are women and even fewer are women of color. But these female physicians at a California hospital are changing the future of medicine.
