00:00SIRM is the first scientific society that has a DEI commission, and DEI means diversity, equity and inclusion.
00:13The aim is to value all people, regardless of gender, regardless of sexual and political orientation, age, ethnicity, race and disability.
00:27By acting in an inclusive way, we reduce the possibility of losing talents.
00:32Today is the International Women's and Girls' Day in Science.
00:39At this level, there is already a problem of STEM disciplines.
00:44Boys dedicate themselves less to STEM disciplines than to other disciplines.
00:51In this field, there is a gender gap, because women dedicate themselves less to STEM disciplines than men.
01:04There is a need to fill this gap.
01:07The International Women's and Girls' Day in Science aims to act on systems to fill the gender gap.
01:21We need reference models and mentors.
01:27This is only possible if we value the scientists we have, the need for women to be pushed towards STEM disciplines,
01:40and that women can understand that they will have the same salary treatment once they graduate.
01:49Because in addition to the gender gap, there is also a salary gap between women and men.
01:55We have dedicated this day to sustainability in radiology, research, innovation and responsibility.
02:04Because it is very important.
02:06The technological evolution is always greater in radiology.
02:10We must combine this technological evolution with the efficiency and sustainability of processes,
02:16minimizing the environmental impact and guaranteeing the quality of the services offered to the patient.
02:24To do this, we must implement research and therefore we must enhance the funds for research,
02:32the funds given to the various institutions that deal with this.
02:38In fact, this morning there will be a round table dedicated to this topic.
02:43We must also create a working group that goes from radiology together with companies and institutions
02:56that must support us to achieve what we want, that is, a radiology of the future, green and sustainable.
