These programs introduce real life, hands-on experiences for those who might not otherwise have knowledge or access to scientific domains from astrophysics to orthopaedics.Īs sex and gender becomes a more high-profile topic in scientific research, two things are likely to happen: More women will see opportunities in the sciences, and new discoveries will be made by men and women, discoveries that improve the lives of men, women, boys, and girls. Nth Dimensions partners with medical specialties that have considerable shortages in women and underrepresented minorities. A similar pipeline program is Nth Dimensions, the brainchild of orthopaedic surgeon, Bonnie Simpson Mason, the AAOS 2015 Diversity Award winner. The Perry Initiative targets high school girls and underrepresented minorities who engage in a life-changing, day-long, hands-on orthopaedics and bioengineering workshop. STEM programs like the Perry Initiative and Nth Dimensions help combat these statistics by bringing girls and underrepresented minorities into the educational fold as future scientists. According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS), women constitute 12% of academic faculty in orthopaedics and 7% of practicing orthopaedists. Initiatives related to Science, Technology, Education and Mathematics (STEM) programs can provide that much-needed voice for women in orthopaedics. Often edgy and persevering, these pioneers quite literally sought a voice, and as they found their own voices, they transformed the zeitgeist of popular music. Bessie Smith fought for the microphone to sing and expose racial injustice. What do these legendary musicians have to do with sex and gender in orthopaedic science? The content and shape of popular music, not surprisingly, follows the cultural trends and our social consciousness. Inside, we found emblems of women who rocked the world-Billie Holiday’s silver fox fur stole, Stevie Nicks’ orange and gold gossamer dress, Chrissie Hynde’s red leather biker jacket, and Janis Joplin’s crib notes to “Move Over” sprinkled among other handwritten lyrics. Last summer, my teenage daughter and I took in the exhibit that honored the feminine “engines of creation and change in popular music” at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, MI, USA. “Women Who Rock: Vision, Passion, Power” from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame reminds me of the dichotomy of art and science. Important disciplines and discussions however, have at their heart both art and science, with yin and yang-feminine and masculine-duality. Art is creative and emotional science is (or should be) rational and objective-feminine versus masculine, to use the language of polarizing stereotypes. You know you got it -whoahhhhh!! Take it! Take it! Take another little piece of my heart now, baby, Oh, oh, break it! Break another little bit of my heart, now darling, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Oh, oh, have a Have another little piece of my heart now, baby, hey, You know you got it, child, if it makes you feel good.Music is a performing art that, on its surface, has little to do with science. oh, oh, have a Have another little piece of my heart now, baby. I need you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it, Take it! Take another little piece of my heart now, baby! oh, oh, break it! Break another little bit of my heart, now darling, yeah, c’monnow. Oh, oh, break it! Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah, Oh, oh, have a! Have another little piece of my heart now, baby You know you got it, child, if it makes you feel good. I’ll say come on, come on, come on, come on and take it! Take it! Take another little piece of my heart now, baby. You’re out on the streets looking good, And baby deep down in your heart I guess you know that it ain’t right, Never, never, never, never, never, never hear me when I cry at night, Babe, I cry all the time!Īnd each time I tell myself that I, well I can’t stand the pain, But when you hold me in your arms, I’ll sing it once again. Oh, oh, have a! Have another little piece of my heart now, baby, You know you got it if it makes you feel good, Oh, yes indeed. I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it, Take it! Take another little piece of my heart now, baby Oh, oh, break it! Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on! Didn’t I make you feel like you were the only man -yeah! Didn’t I give you nearly everything that a woman possibly can? Honey, you know I did!Īnd each time I tell myself that I, well I think I’ve had enough, But I’m gonna show you, baby, that a woman can be tough. Dalszöveg: Piece Of My Heart – Janis Joplin
