      abstract     = {Background The proportion of women among healthcare and
                      biomedical research professionals in neuro­ oncology is
                      growing . With changes in cultural expectations and
                      work-life balance considerations, more men aspire to
                      nonfull-time jobs, yet, leadership positions remain
                      dominated by men.Methods. The European Association of
                      Neuro-Oncology (EANO) disparity committee carried out a
                      digital survey to explore gender balance and actions
                      suitable to promote gender equality . The survey was
                      distributed among EANO members in 2021, with responses
                      analyzed descriptively.Results: In total, 262 participants
                      completed the survey (141 women, $53.8\%;$ median age 43).
                      Respondents were neurosurgeons (68, $26.0\%);$ neurologists
                      (67, $25.6\%),$ medical oncologists (43, $16.4\%),$ or other
                      healthcare or re­ search professionals; 208 participants
                      $(79.4\%)$ worked full-time . Positive action to enforce the
                      role of women in neuro-oncology was deemed necessary by 180
                      participants (68 $.7\%),$ but only 28 participants (10
                      $.7\%)$ agreed that women only should be promoted until
                      gender balance is reached. A majority of respondents (162,
                      $61.8\%)$ feit that women with an equivalent CV should be
                      prioritized over men to reach gender balance. lf in the
                      future the balance favored women at higher positions, 112
                      respondents (4 $2.7\%)$ agreed to apply positive action
                      formen. The top in­ dicators considered relevant to measure
                      gender balance w ere: salary for similar positions (18
                      3/228, $80.3\%),$ paid overtime (176 /228, $77.2\%),$ number
                      of permanent positions (164 / 228, $71.9\%),$ protected time
                      for research (161 $/227,70.9\%),$ and training opportunities
                      (157 /227, $69.2\%).Conclusions:$ Specific indicators may
                      help to measure and promote gender balance and should be
                      considered for implementation among healthcare professionals
                      in neuro -oncology .},
