Judith Linden, MD, MED, Emergency Medicine, is known for her expertise in violence against women/sexual assault and substance use disorder recognition and intervention. She was co-investigator for a National Institute of Justice-sponsored program to train medical and law students to advocate for victims of intimate partner violence (IPV), developed best practices for IPV documentation, and served for many years on the Massachusetts Medical Society Committee on Violence. She co-led a program for Israeli and Palestinian health care workers, focused on developing best practices and interventions for intimate partner violence survivors. Dr. Linden published an invited review in the New England Journal of Medicine on the acute care of sexual assault survivors, cited 106 times and downloaded internationally. She served on a committee to update CDC Guidelines for the treatment/prevention of STI in sexual assault victims, and currently serves on the AAMC's Women in Medicine and Science Intimate Partner Violence Task Force. Dr. Linden has trained physicians in brief intervention and referral for treatment in substance use disorders. She was a coinvestigator on a $1.3 million Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) grant to develop and evaluate a web-based curriculum to assist providers identify and treat neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) and opioid use disorders (OUD) among child bearing age women. More than 300 prescribers have completed the course in person or online. She is a champion of increasing diversity in academic Emergency Medicine, and currently serves on the American College of Emergency Physicians Committee on Diversity and Inclusion in Academic Promotion, as well as the AWAEM (Academy for Women in Emergency Medicine) Administrative Leadership Development Committee.
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility
I believe that diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging in our faculty, trainees and staff is crucial for creating a vibrant community where all feel welcome and empowered to contribute to our mission. Appreciating, sharing and celebrating our rich cultural differences, backgrounds, beliefs and practices is critical to retention of our workforce.
Mentoring/sponsoring: Much of my professional career has been devoted to identifying, documenting and addressing inequities in Emergency Medicine leadership and salary for women and minoritized faculty. I have witnessed many gains in this area and am optimistic about the future but recognize that there is much work to be done to achieve equity and belonging for minoritized faculty and staff. I am passionate about mentoring and sponsoring a diverse group of students, trainees and junior faculty. A diverse cohort of students, trainees and faculty is critical to achieve optimal, inclusive patient-centered care. I believe that mentoring this diverse group of future physicians begins before medical school, and continues throughout careers.
