A 20-year reflection on women in rheumatology - Nature Reviews Rheumatology The collective priorities of the rheumatology field represent the lived experience, and therefore diversity of its members. The ‘mould’ of rheumatology, that is, its culture, structures and expectations, was not created for or by women, but women have slowly changed this mould to make space for diverse perspectives.

An incredible honour to be included in this Nature Reviews Rheumatology feature - a 20-year reflection on women in rheumatology. 💜💜💜

Huge thanks to the wonderful @ashira-md.bsky.social & Dr. Grace Wright
for co-authoring such an inspiring piece. 🤩.

This is figure 1, which shows the complexity of psoriatic arthritis-related joint disease.

A Perspective in Nature Reviews Rheumatology proposes that patients with psoriatic arthritis and an inadequate response to therapy can be classified into two distinct subgroups and discusses considerations for treatment strategies and trial design. go.nature.com/4j96VTU 🔒

Study of biologists quitting academia reveals hidden gender gaps Even in fields in which women are well represented, they are up to 40% more likely than men to leave research within 20 years.

Female scientists are quitting academic publishing earlier than their male counterparts, even in biological-science disciplines that have roughly equal representation.
