Medicine, like other professions, has traditionally been dominated by men. Although women now make up 49 percent of incoming medical students [1], it is still unusual to find them in the highest positions of academic leadership. In a 2006 article entitled "The 'Gender Gap' in Authorship of Academic Medical Literature-A 35-Year Perspective," published in the New England Journal of Medicine, Reshma Jagsi and colleagues reported on their collected information about the sex of the first and last authors published in six peer-reviewed professional journals. This data served as the benchmark to measure success for women in academic medicine
