In honour of the 115th International Women’s Day (IWD), meet some of the outstanding women in the UBC Faculty of Medicine — learners, faculty and staff — who are transforming health for everyone.

Read on to hear reflections from some of our outstanding learners, staff and faculty members across the province.
