You can’t just write a prescription for this. A new report surveying 1,066 successful mid-career doctors of both genders found that sex discrimination knows no professional boundaries: Nearly a third of the female physicians reported having experienced sexual harassment.

Given that nearly half of med students are women, study authors say shining a light on sexism will be key to ensuring the health of the medical profession.
