Gender equity in Transplantation: A Report from the Women in Transplantation Workshop of the Transplantation Society of Australia and New Zealand.

The exponential growth of young talented females choosing science and medicine as their professional career over the past decade is substantial. Currently, more than half of the Australian medical doctoral graduates and early career researchers are comprised of women, but less than 20% of all academic professorial staff are female. The loss of female talent in the hierarchical ladder of Australian academia is a considerable waste of government investment, productivity and scientific innovation. Gender disparity in the professional workforce composition is even more striking within the field of transplantation. Women are grossly under-represented in leadership roles, with currently no female Heads of Unit in any of the Australian and New Zealand Transplanting centres. At the same time, there is also gender segregation with a greater concentration of women in lower-status academic position compared to their male counterparts. Given the extent and magnitude of the disparity, the Women In Transplantation Committee, a subcommittee of the Transplantation Society of Australia and New Zealand established a workshop comprising 8 female clinicians/scientists in transplantation. The key objectives were to i) identify potential gender equity issues within the transplantation workforce, ii) devise and implement potential strategies and interventions to address some of these challenges at a societal level, iii) set realistic and achievable goals to enhance and facility gender equality, equity and diversity in transplantation.
