Webinar | September 17, 2024 | 11 a.m. ET

Join us for a virtual briefing and hear about new research plans for women’s health and their potential to transform women’s healthcare.

Women make up more than half the U.S. population, but a lack of research and data on women’s health has left major gaps in knowledge about how various conditions specifically impact women. There has been a significant push to close those gaps by focusing attention and funding on health areas that solely, disproportionately or uniquely affect women across the lifespan, such as autoimmune diseases, brain disorders, cardiovascular disease, reproductive health and cancer. The past year has seen new government efforts to galvanize women’s health research, develop innovations to address gaps and ensure that ALL women have access to quality care. Join us to learn more about this work, its ripple effect across the women’s health ecosystem and actions that Congress can take to continue to make progress for women everywhere.
