Communication breakdowns are associated with a high rate of the failure to debrief.

nternational Women’s Day celebrates women’s achievements and raises awareness of the continuing mission towards gender equality. So it’s a good time to be reminded we still need to correct decades — centuries even — of gender bias in medicine and medical research. It’s no secret men and women are different. It’s why we have a whole genre of books and jokes about why “men are from Mars and women are from Venus”. Mentally, physically and biologically, men and women are simply not built the same way.

That concept became a reality in November along a little-used trail at Priest Point Park in Olympia.
