Programs

All of SWHR’s activities are rooted in science. Whether engaging in policy efforts, conducting awareness campaigns, developing white papers, or creating patient toolkits, SWHR’s work is science-based and created with the help of other experts in the field. SWHR’s work identifies research gaps and addresses unmet needs in diseases and conditions that exclusively, differently, or disproportionately affect women.

Women’s Health Focus Areas

SWHR is invested in a wide range of women’s health topics, conditions, and diseases. All of SWHR’s science and policy work rely on building and working with interdisciplinary networks to help us better understand existing gaps in research and care and the opportunities available to address outcomes for women as patients, caregivers, and health care decision makers.
