We believe it is crucial to discuss the roles of women in medicine, specifically in surgery and neurosurgery. Despite society's progress toward gender equality in surgery and neurosurgery, these fields remain predominantly male. Recognizing and supporting these talented women allow them to bring attention to their contributions in their respective fields. Two notable French neurosurgeons, Françoise Lapierre, and Bernadette Stilhart, have played significant roles in their field for several decades. Françoise Lapierre, the second head of neurosurgery at Poitiers since its creation, was one of the first female heads of neurosurgery in France. In addition to her departmental role, she has also conducted training missions in the Far East, specifically in Vietnam and Cambodia. She also served as the Editor-in-Chief of the journal Neurochirurgie for several years. Bernadette Stilhart, with a career spanning almost 50 years, has trained multiple generations of neurosurgeons from France and around the world. She has also been the head of one of France's oldest neurosurgery departments in Colmar, Alsace for 20 years.
我们认为，讨论女性在医学领域，特别是外科和神经外科中的角色至关重要。尽管社会在外科和神经外科领域朝着性别平等取得了进展，但这些领域仍然主要由男性主导。认可和支持这些有才华的女性可以让她们在各自的领域中引起对自己贡献的关注。两位著名的法国神经外科医生，Françoise Lapierre 和 Bernadette Stilhart，在她们的领域中已经活跃了几十年。Françoise Lapierre 是波尔多自成立以来的第二位神经外科主任，也是法国第一位女性神经外科主任之一。除了她的部门角色外，她还在远东地区，特别是越南和柬埔寨，进行了培训任务。她还担任过《神经外科学》杂志的主编多年。Bernadette Stilhart 的职业生涯几乎跨越了 50 年，她培训了来自法国和世界各地的多代神经外科医生。她还在阿尔萨斯的科尔马领导了法国最古老的神经外科部门之一长达 20 年。
