Call for Applications: 2nd class of the Career Development Seminar for Emerging Women Leaders (CDSEWL) Program.  The CDSEWL is modeled after national programs for women in academic medicine, is 7 days in total spread out over 7 months.  There are three benefits: 1) the faculty member will not have to travel out of town; 2) the program is spread out over 7 months, causing less interruption in teaching, research and clinical responsibilities; and 3) more women will be able to participate.
