Team models can work! several women working together with men can make progress - we do this with great success BUT requires team science to be recognized by promotion cmtes ASAP (3/6)

it’s too easy to not invite women to join assuming they can’t contribute due to home life. This needs to end. Leaders need to be deliberately inclusive of all types of partnerships and people. (4/6)
