Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

September: Women in Medicine Month - Ingeborg Bajema

In 2022, the RPS would like to focus on embracing diversity, equity, and inclusion; and on broadening our international network.  One way to achieve this goal is to celebrate a semi-monthly calendar of observances and appreciations with 10-question interviews highlighting our diverse pool of members. 

This month we have two reasons to celebrate!  We retroactively celebrate Women in Medicine Month (September) and Global Diversity Awareness Month (October) with our longtime RPS member and current president, Dr. Ingeborg Bajema.  Dr. Bajema was recently appointed a full professorship in nephropathology at University Medical Center Groningen, the Netherlands.  The actual date of the appointment was 1^st October: Diversity Day!
