Welcome to another episode of The Gynarchy Podcast! Today, I’m speaking with Dr. Arghavan Salles, a surgeon, researcher, and national leader in diversity, inclusion, and equity, on the topic of sexual harassment 

In “Episode 31: Sexual Harassment”, Dr. Salles brings her unique perspective having studied gender bias and stereotypes during her surgical training and also as an NIH-funded researcher to discuss how sexual harassment contributes to gender inequity in medicine, academia, and in greater society in general.

Here are some of the topics we discuss:

• Dr. Salles discusses her background and research in gender-based issues during her surgical and post doctoral training
• How the #MeToo movement sparked change… and a backlash
• How rape culture contributes to abuse and victim blaming
• Understanding what constitutes sexual harassment
