Keywords: gender bias, conference speakers (PubMed Search)

Posted: 2/21/2026 by Kevin Semelrath, MD (Updated: 2/21/2026)

Bottom line: Good news! In 2022 and 2023, at ACEP, SAEM and AAEM, invited speakers were evenly split 50/50 women and men (with a small percentage nonbinary) showing no significant gender bias toward speaker invitation.
