Hello Members!

Welcome fall, welcome all! In case you missed it, WIT@UCSF put on a panel discussion and mixer at the UCSF Sharecase conference for everyone to join in on the conversation about gender equity in technology. We had a blast hosting and seeing everyone there. 

Now that Sharecase is done, we are hard at work putting together new programming for you. Please stay tuned for future event announcements, and as always, please send us your ideas for topics or formats you'd like to see. We love to hear from our members!

Next, we are highlighting a brand new blog post about a conversation we had with Sara Murray, MD, one of our Sharecase panelists. In the blog, she discusses AI, Electronic Health records, and a really cool app she's developing. We hope you enjoy it!

Lastly, we want to draw your attention to the member spotlight for this month. Our newest member of the WIT@UCSF Leadership Team, Sarah Ngo, shares with us a little about her career and her life. You'll get to see why we think she's so awesome.

Power on!
