Help OUHSC WiSDMH* recognize the contributions of women in the health professions and the academic science community, promote their development, advancement, and retention, and foster equal opportunity for women in academic careers. We will be honoring outstanding international, national, regional or institutional contributions/awards or honors made by or received by women faculty at OUHSC. Stories will be recognized, recorded and showcased each year with an exhibit at the library and in a digital and/or bound book. We will open a portal for story submission in the Spring of 2024.
