A rural Australian doctor has been chosen to represent women in medicine globally at a UN conference in the US later this year.

Dr Skye Kinder, a registrar in Bendigo, Victoria, will be travelling to New York in March to attend the Commission on the Status of Women event. 

She announced the news on Twitter earlier this week, saying she was “humbled” to be selected.
