Highlights

  • During the COVID-19 pandemic, many conferences were converted to virtual formats.

  • Online offerings should allow for conference panels to include more female speakers.

  • We conducted a cross-sectional observation of webinars at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • Webinars organized by industry (vs professional societies) included fewer women (10% vs 28%).

  • Webinar organizers must be intentional with the gender distribution of panel speakers.
