Women, Feminism, and American Medicine

Join the Working Women’s Network for a Women’s History Month discussion on women, feminism, and American medicine. Our guest speaker will be Naomi Rogers, Ph.D., who will discuss the feminist women’s health movement, and how it empowered women’s knowledge, regarding their health and battle against paternalistic and oppressive practices within healthcare systems.

Naomi Rogers is Professor of the History of Medicine in the Section of the History of Medicine at Yale Medical School and the Program in the History of Science and Medicine at Yale University, where she teaches undergraduates, graduate students, and medical students.
