Emory Alliance for Women in Medicine and Science



The mission of the Emory Alliance for Women in Medicine and Science (EAWiMS) is to promote a culture that supports the academic progress and professional success of women faculty and trainees through four pillars: education, advocacy, mentoring, and networking.  

We often collaborate with other women’s groups on campus. Explore these other programs at Emory for women. Download PDF.
