Women's History Month is a moment to honor the women who changed cardiology — often before medicine was ready to recognize them. The researchers who insisted women belong in clinical trials. The clinicians who demanded better diagnostic standards. The mentors who opened doors when there were very few women in the room. We stand on their shoulders. And we have a responsibility to keep climbing. The Women as One Mentorship Awards are a perfect example of paving the way forward: womenasone.org/for-physicians… Progress happens when women lift as they climb. @Drroxmehran, @pamelasdouglas, @drmalissawood, @hvanspall, @NanetteWenger, @SharonneHayes, @avolgman, @gina_lundberg, Judy Hochman, Sandra Lewis, @drstaceyrosen, @DrMarthaGulati @WomenAs1 @KatzWomensHlth @NorthwellHealth #WomensHistoryMonth #WomenInMedicine #WomensinResearch #Cardiology

Millions of Americans skip medications because they can't afford them. Did the Inflation Reduction Act help? In @JAMAInternalMed, we find the IRA's 2024 drug provisions ⬇️⬇️cost-related medication nonadherence—especially in those w/ multiple conditions jamanetwork.com/journals/jamai…

Cardiovascular risk is rising among women of every age — including young women and girls. But this is not inevitable. We know prevention works. We understand sex-specific risk better than ever. And coordinated care can change outcomes. The path forward is clear — and within reach. @drstaceyrosen @avolgman @SharonneHayes @gina_lundberg @AnastasiaSMihai @rblument1 @American_Heart @NorthwellHealth cardiovascularbusiness.com/topics/clinica…
