When sending an email to reply to interview invites, how do you address the coordinator? They only give the full first/last name of the person. First name, Mr. or Ms.? Just curious. Thanks!
A PD at a top 2 medicine program told me that assigning a pronoun based on a coordinator's name when the coordinator did not provide it represents an underlying narrow-mindedness about gender on the part of the applicant. Straight ticket to the bottom of the rank list!
It's amazing how crazy this process makes us

That PD needs to get over himself (or herself!). What the heck is narrow-minded about assuming that an Elizabeth is female (haven't run into or heard of any male ones yet!) or a Joshua is male? I understand if the name is unisex or gender-neutral.
So, will this same PD tell me s/he has never addressed/assumed someone on the other end of the phone as male or female based on the sound of their voice? Yeah, hypocrite!
Wow despite the wink people still not catching sarcasm....
