Renu Eapen on Breaking Barriers for Women in Medicine

Last Saturday was International Women's Day (IWD). This is a day of both advocacy and celebration for our members; we recognise ongoing efforts towards gender equality and celebrate the significant achievements and contributions of women in science and medicine.

Dr Renu Eapen is one of many inspiring women in our membership, and we were delighted to see her featured in the Herald Sun VWeekend Magazine last weekend.

Renu is a Consultant Urologist with a special interest in prostate, kidney and bladder cancers. As part of the Herald Sun's IWD coverage, Renu shares insights on science, medicine, diversity and mentorship. 

Her message to women — "you are only limited by your curiosity, creativity, and imagination" — is an inspiring one, as is her emphasis on mentorship and the need to support and empower other women in the field. 

For more information on this story, the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre has written an article which is available to read online.
