Abstract

While the balanced representation of women in leadership roles at the ASCO 2024 congress reflects positive development in gender equality, disparities in active participation persist. These findings underscore the need for strategies that not only promote women in visible roles but also foster an environment that supports their active engagement in scientific discussions.
