Dr. Elizabeth Travis, Associate Vice President, Women Faculty Programs for M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, is editor of Legends and Legacies: Personal Journeys of Women Physicians and Scientists, a collection of essays by leading women faculty who overcame hardships, biases, and self-doubts to pursue their passions. These stories of perseverance and success inspire young women considering careers in science or medicine as well as provide a road map for balancing work and family. Central to each journey were caring mentors who facilitated their career development. Leaders learn ways to mentor the next generation for careers in science and health care.
