Gender disparities in NIH radiology grant funding: A 15-year analysis

Despite incremental progress in women's representation, these findings underscore ongoing gender disparities in radiology funding. This imbalance may hinder innovation and limit the range of perspectives driving future research. Evidence-informed strategies may help address inequities, promote diversity and innovation, and ensure equitable, high-quality patient care.

Abstract

Despite incremental progress in women's representation, these findings underscore ongoing gender disparities in radiology funding. This imbalance may hinder innovation and limit the range of perspectives driving future research. Evidence-informed strategies may help address inequities, promote diversity and innovation, and ensure equitable, high-quality patient care.
