In this eye-opening episode, we sit down with Dr. Tim Nutbeam, a leading expert in Emergency Medicine, to explore his groundbreaking research. The findings expose a startling truth: women seeking emergency care are subjected to different treatment than men, with potentially life-threatening consequences. Join us as we navigate the landscape of medical misogyny in clinical practice, unravelling its global impact on women's health and well-being.

found that women are less likely to receive TXA than men. What, in your opinion, causes
this disparity?

gaps. How can medical professionals and organizations bridge this gap?

outcomes. Can you share the motivation behind this research, your key findings, and
your thoughts on why certain injuries are more common in women?
27:10 - As someone who witnessed medical misogyny, what advice would you give
for navigating such challenging situations in the medical field?
31:05 - Following your findings on gender differences in collision outcomes, how do you
