RP Presents: Representation in Radiology – Our Diverse Future
November 16, 2021 at 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm CST
About the Webinar
Radiology practices continue to recognize the importance of diversity, equity and inclusion in medicine, but recruiting a diverse physician workforce can be a challenge—particularly as Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) medical students often choose other specialties. If you are interested in learning about how radiology leaders seek to transform the specialty’s workforce for the next generation, join us Tuesday, November 16, at 7 p.m. ET | 6 p.m. CT | 5 p.m. MT | 4 p.m. PT for the webinar “RP Presents: Representation in Radiology – Our Diverse Future.” During this timely conversation, our expert panelists will discuss their personal paths that led to radiology and offer important insights for rising physicians to consider when choosing a specialty. The panel discussion will include a Q&A session.
