SWIMS (Spotlight on Women in Medicine and Science)

SWIMS (Spotlight on Women in Medicine and Science) is an annual event where we highlight the impressive contributions of our female colleagues.

Each year is typically centered around a theme, where a featured speaker and current SLU faculty share advice and experiences centered around the theme.
