Courtesy Jennifer R. Niebyl, MD
Dr. Jennifer Niebyl (b. 1942) was turned down for residencies in obstetrics and gynecology by several university hospitals because she was a woman. Since completing her training, she has built an influential career, focusing on known problems affecting the developing fetus, as well as lesser-known concerns, such as the impact of morning sickness. In 1988, she became the third woman to head a department of obstetrics and gynecology in the United States.
