When biology meets burnout: retaining midcareer women in academic medicine
Listen to this summary
The authors investigate how the menopause transition, occurring between ages 40 and 55, contributes to the disproportionate attrition of midcareer women in academic medicine, particularly in the context of existing gender inequities. They highlight the significant impact of menopausal symptoms on workplace productivity and advocate for organizational interventions, such as coaching and mentorship programs, to support these women and mitigate burnout. The study emphasizes the necessity of addressing these challenges to retain talent in a field facing projected physician shortages.
