Abstrakt: A recent report from the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health discusses research findings on plastic and reconstructive surgery. The study focused on gender representation in citation practices within a single surgical laboratory. The researchers found that there is a gender bias in citation practices at the laboratory level, with male-led articles citing predominantly male-authored articles. However, the study also suggests that diversifying the team of researchers can lead to improved diversity and success in the laboratory's work. The researchers encourage other laboratory groups to challenge their own biases and examine how these biases may be impacting their publications. [Extracted from the article]
