class="generic-paragraph__text"><p>As part of the celebration commemorating 100 Years of Women at YSM in 2018, the school commissioned photographer Robert Lisak, MFA’81, to produce a series of photographic portraits of women faculty. These portraits formed the basis for Aperture 1, the first rotating exhibit sponsored by the YSM Program for Art in Public Spaces, which opened in March 2020. Aperture 2, featuring a different set of portraits, is on display on the second floor of Sterling Hall of Medicine through August 2020. </p> <p> <em>Aperture</em> refers to a space or gap, signifying the scarcity of women on the walls of Sterling Hall of Medicine. In photography, aperture is also the size of the opening in the lens through which light passes. Its use here represents the casting of light in the form of the public eye that in this exhibit is directed toward recognizing and celebrating women faculty in medicine, who have long been cast in the shadows. <br></p> <p>We welcome your thoughts and feedback at <a href="mailto:ysm.paps@yale.edu">ysm.paps@yale.edu</a>. <br></p></div></div></div> </section></div><div class="component-wrapper component-wrapper--all"><section class="generic-content" aria-label="Aperture Galleries"><div class="generic-content__title-container"><div class="heading__container"><h2 id="aperture-galleries" class="generic-content__title">Aperture Galleries</h2><div class="heading__anchor-copy-button-container"><button type="button" aria-label="Copy Link" class="anchor-copy-button anchor-copy-button--color-mode--dark"><span class="anchor-copy-button__content"><span class="anchor-copy-button__text">Copy Link</span><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xml:space="preserve" viewBox="0 0 24 24" focusable="false" class="anchor-copy-button__icon"><path d="M5.253 21.497a5.21 5.21 0 0 1-3.712-1.535A5.21 5.21 0 0 1 .006 16.25c0-1.404.545-2.722 1.535-3.712l4.773-4.774a5.22 5.22 0 0 1 3.716-1.539c1.402 0 2.719.544 3.708 1.531a5.225 5.225 0 0 1 .538 6.804.75.75 0 0 1-1.048.165.74.74 0 0 1-.299-.489.75.75 0 0 1 .134-.558 3.73 3.73 0 0 0-.384-4.86 3.73 3.73 0 0 0-2.649-1.094 3.73 3.73 0 0 0-2.655 1.099l-4.774 4.774a3.754 3.754 0 0 0 0 5.303c.707.707 1.649 1.096 2.652 1.096s1.945-.389 2.652-1.096l.932-.932a.744.744 0 0 1 1.06 0 .744.744 0 0 1 0 1.06l-.932.932a5.2 5.2 0 0 1-3.712 1.537"></path><path d="M13.978 18.024a5.21 5.21 0 0 1-3.709-1.535 5.22 5.22 0 0 1-.536-6.803.75.75 0 0 1 1.047-.166.75.75 0 0 1 .3.49.75.75 0 0 1-.134.558 3.73 3.73 0 0 0 .383 4.859 3.73 3.73 0 0 0 2.65 1.096 3.73 3.73 0 0 0 2.654-1.1l4.773-4.773c.708-.708 1.098-1.65 1.098-2.652s-.39-1.943-1.098-2.652c-.707-.707-1.649-1.096-2.652-1.096s-1.945.389-2.652 1.096l-.75.75a.744.744 0 0 1-1.06 0c-.142-.141-.22-.33-.22-.53s.078-.389.22-.53l.75-.75c.99-.99 2.309-1.536 3.712-1.536s2.722.545 3.712 1.536a5.21 5.21 0 0 1 1.538 3.712 5.21 5.21 0 0 1-1.538 3.712l-4.773 4.773a5.21 5.21 0 0 1-3.711 1.54z"></path></svg></span></button></div></div></div> </section></div><div class="component-wrapper component-wrapper--all"><div><div class="media-gallery" role="group" aria-roledescription="carousel" aria-label="Aperture 1"><div class="heading__container"><h2 class="gallery-title media-gallery__title" id="aperture-1">Aperture 1</h2><div class="heading__anchor-copy-button-container"><button type="button" aria-label="Copy Link" class="anchor-copy-button anchor-copy-button--color-mode--dark"><span class="anchor-copy-button__content"><span class="anchor-copy-button__text">Copy Link</span><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xml:space="preserve" viewBox="0 0 24 24" focusable="false" class="anchor-copy-button__icon"><path d="M5.253 21.497a5.21 5.21 0 0 1-3.712-1.535A5.21 5.21 0 0 1 .006 16.25c0-1.404.545-2.722 1.535-3.712l4.773-4.774a5.22 5.22 0 0 1 3.716-1.539c1.402 0 2.719.544 3.708 1.531a5.225 5.225 0 0 1 .538 6.804.75.75 0 0 1-1.048.165.74.74 0 0 1-.299-.489.75.75 0 0 1 .134-.558 3.73 3.73 0 0 0-.384-4.86 3.73 3.73 0 0 0-2.649-1.094 3.73 3.73 0 0 0-2.655 1.099l-4.774 4.774a3.754 3.754 0 0 0 0 5.303c.707.707 1.649 1.096 2.652 1.096s1.945-.389 2.652-1.096l.932-.932a.744.744 0 0 1 1.06 0 .744.744 0 0 1 0 1.06l-.932.932a5.2 5.2 0 0 1-3.712 1.537"></path><path d="M13.978 18.024a5.21 5.21 0 0 1-3.709-1.535 5.22 5.22 0 0 1-.536-6.803.75.75 0 0 1 1.047-.166.75.75 0 0 1 .3.49.75.75 0 0 1-.134.558 3.73 3.73 0 0 0 .383 4.859 3.73 3.73 0 0 0 2.65 1.096 3.73 3.73 0 0 0 2.654-1.1l4.773-4.773c.708-.708 1.098-1.65 1.098-2.652s-.39-1.943-1.098-2.652c-.707-.707-1.649-1.096-2.652-1.096s-1.945.389-2.652 1.096l-.75.75a.744.744 0 0 1-1.06 0c-.142-.141-.22-.33-.22-.53s.078-.389.22-.53l.75-.75c.99-.99 2.309-1.536 3.712-1.536s2.722.545 3.712 1.536a5.21 5.21 0 0 1 1.538 3.712 5.21 5.21 0 0 1-1.538 3.712l-4.773 4.773a5.21 5.21 0 0 1-3.711 1.54z"></path></svg></span></button></div></div><div class="carousel"><div class="slick-slider slick-initialized" dir="ltr"><div class="slick-list"><div class="slick-track" style="width:3300%;left:0%"><div data-index="0" class="slick-slide slick-active slick-current" tabindex="-1" aria-hidden="false" style="outline:none;width:3.0303030303030303%"><div><div class="carousel__item" tabindex="-1" style="width:100%;display:inline-block"><div class="media-gallery__slide" role="group" tabindex="-1" aria-roledescription="slide" aria-label="1 of 33"><div class="media-gallery-item media-gallery-item--width-mode--auto"><div class="media-gallery-item__media-container"><div class="media-gallery-item__poster"><figure class="poster poster--width-mode--auto"><span class="" style="display:inline-block"></span><div class="poster__details"><div class="poster__caption-container"><h3 class="poster__title">Angoff</h3><div class="poster__caption"><div>“I am blessed.

My hesitation was that if I didn’t like it I would’ve taken one of the 6 to 10% of places allotted to women at the time. Fortunately, I loved both medical school and residency at Yale.

Women in medicine have made a huge difference in a positive way both for patients and how the field has evolved. However, medicine needs to address work-life balance in such a way that women are embraced in leadership positions more readily.

My early career veered in many directions and I tried to follow my heart, which led me to move to New Haven to marry and have a family. I managed to carve out time for my scholarly passions, but it was six years before I became a full-time assistant professor. I would urge younger women to find a balance between professional responsibilities and private joys, and to make seeking and achieving that balance a legitimate practice for everyone.”</p><p><br /></p><div><div><strong>Naomi Rogers, PhD</strong></div><div><strong>Professor in the History of Medicine and of</strong></div><div><strong>History</strong></div></div></div></div></div></figure></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div data-index="29" class="slick-slide" tabindex="-1" aria-hidden="true" style="outline:none;width:2.4390243902439024%"><div><div class="carousel__item" tabindex="-1" style="width:100%;display:inline-block"><div class="media-gallery__slide" role="group" tabindex="-1" aria-roledescription="slide" aria-label="30 of 41"><div class="media-gallery-item media-gallery-item--width-mode--auto"><div class="media-gallery-item__media-container"><div class="media-gallery-item__poster"><figure class="poster poster--width-mode--auto"><span class="" style="display:inline-block"></span><div class="poster__details"><div class="poster__caption-container"><h3 class="poster__title">Rothlin</h3><div class="poster__caption"><p>“The approximately 15 species of passerines in various islands of the Galapagos, known as Darwin’s finches, have remarkable differences in their beaks. We now know this is a result of natural selection allowing the different species to adapt to their unique niches. The shape and function of the beaks best suit the environment the birds inhabit. Just as the large ground finch is not required to catch insects in flight as the warbler finch would, one should neither worry about one’s origin, race, background, or gender, nor compare oneself to others.
