Hi Suw, Great to hear your talking about this. Like you, Ed's article has prompted me to follow the number of female contributors quoted in the news pages of The Lancet (World Report, for those of you who are unfamiliar), but I'd love to hear what other tools are available, other considerations when reporting about women. Is your talk going to be public/will you share the feedback you've received from the mailing list?
