Washington, D.C. <\/b>\u2013 May 8, 2023 <\/b>\u2013 Leaders from RadEqual, an organization that fosters networking and mentorship opportunities for leaders in radiology, informatics, and IT management, and the American Association for Women in Radiology (AAWR) today signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) at the 2023 American College of Radiology\u2019s annual meeting<\/a> in Washington D.C. The two-year MOU will merge both parties into a formal agreement that will support increased collaboration and promote a shared pursuit of creating educational initiatives for the broader radiology community.\u00a0<\/p>

\u201cIt is part of the AAWR\u2019s mission and purpose to create networking and mentorship opportunities for leaders in the radiology field,\u201d said Dr. Amy Patel, President, AAWR. \u201cOur new partnership with RadEqual will give us the profound chance to further inspire women within this community, and we\u2019re proud to sponsor future activities that will be the catalyst for amplifying the next-generation of leaders.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

In August 2022, RadEqual launched a webinar series sponsored by Intelerad<\/a>, and now the AAWR, on overcoming the mid-career stall. Webinar attendees have the opportunity to learn from some of the healthcare industry\u2019s most renowned leaders. The educational series will continue through July this year, with the next session being hosted on May 17<\/a> by Dr. Nancy Spector<\/a>, Senior Vice Dean for Faculty and Professor of Pediatrics at Drexel University College of Medicine, Executive Director of ELAM and ELH, and the Executive Director of the Lynn Yeakel Institute for Women\u2019s Health and Leadership. Dr. Spector will focus on the topics of mentorship, sponsorship and networking strategies for success.\u00a0<\/p>

\u201cSince its founding, RadEqual\u2019s partners and supporters have been at the forefront of creating opportunities for and empowering leaders in the healthcare community,\u201d said Dr. Geraldine McGinty, RadEqual co-founder and Professor of Clinical Radiology and Population Health Sciences, Weill Cornell Medicine. \u201cFor over four decades, the AAWR has driven\u00a0monumental change, and I am proud that today, we can now align our efforts and build a more promising future for leaders in radiology together.\u201d<\/p>

In November 2016, RadEqual was born when Dr. McGinty, along with other female leaders, noticed that they were often the only women in the room during events. Through networking and open dialogues, women shared similar experiences in the technology sector, where they are often underrepresented in executive leadership roles and corporate board seats. Today, RadEqual\u2019s initiatives are supported by thought leaders in the healthcare industry, and the global RadEqual community, composed of women, men and nonbinary individuals, has grown to hundreds of individuals who are interested in increasing diversity within the various disciplines related to medical imaging. Intelerad is proud to sponsor the organization alongside the AAWR as it continues to grow and partner with other like-minded groups.<\/p>

\u201cCollaborating with RadEqual has expanded Intelerad\u2019s mission to include supporting the female leaders in radiology who are the future of healthcare,\u201d said Marissa Carlson, Chief Marketing Officer & Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Chair, Intelerad. \u201cThe newly solidified partnership between RadEqual and the AAWR signals the importance being placed on connecting women with mentors in their field, and we\u2019re proud to help foster those opportunities.\u201d<\/p>
