Titled “A Longitudinal Study of Gender Equity in Faculty Compensation in a Large Academic Department of Medicine,” the poster was awarded Best-in-Class for equity and diversity. 

Dr. Joseph said, "Medical schools around the country are finally paying attention to gender disparities in compensation. Our department has been doing a formal salary equity analysis every year since 2011, and it is rewarding to receive this recognition from AAMC GFA for our work."
