The German Radiological Society (Deutsche Röntgengesellschaft, DRG) will hold a workshop on 1-2 April at Gastwerk Hamburg with the aim of increasing networking and boosting the influence of women in radiology.
The workshop is being spearheaded by Dr. Kerstin Westphalen, president of the 103rd German X-ray Congress. She stated a goal last year was to ensure at least 35% of speakers are women in the German Radiology Congress (Deutscher Röntgenkongress, RöKo) training program. The DRG launched a mentoring program to foster more female speakers.
The upcoming workshop will expand attendees' view of career opportunities in radiology and communication in everyday working life. Attendees will have the chance to benefit from the tips and tricks of experienced coaches and visualize their strengths in intensive group training sessions.
An official agenda with a detailed program and schedule is available. The cost for the workshop is 120 euros, excluding accommodation.
More information is available on the DRG website.
