SUMMARY:Incorporating a Sex-and-Gender Lens from Bench to Bedside: Neurology
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, September 1\, 2020\, at 1:00 p.m. (Eastern Time)\, ORWH will host an hour-long webinar titled “Incorporating a Sex-and-Gender Lens from Bench to Bedside: Neurology\,” featuring Farida Sohrabji\, Ph.D.\, of Texas A&M College of Medicine. Dr. Sohrabji will discuss the urgency of considering sex and gender in neurological health\, particularly as they pertain to ischemic stroke\, Parkinson’s disease\, and epilepsy. She will also share lessons learned from her career as an educator committed to including a sex and gender perspective in graduate and medical education. Her lecture will be followed by a moderated Q&A session. \nThis event also will introduce the neurology module of the “Bench to Bedside” course\, developed by ORWH and the Food and Drug Administration Office of Women’s Health. This free online course gives users a thorough and up-to-date understanding of sex and gender influences on health and disease so this knowledge can be applied when conducting research and interpreting evidence for clinical practice. \nMore info & register

SUMMARY:Conversations that Matter: Memory
DESCRIPTION:Scientists have known that amyloid plaque\, tangles and tau are implicated in Alzheimer’s disease. Until now research trials have unsuccessfully addressed these three areas. In this webinar from Johns Hopkins\, attendees will hear about current clinical trials to alter the course of the disease as well as early symptoms and the course of the disease.\n\nThe event speaker is Constantine Lyketsos\, M.D.\, who is the Elizabeth Plank Althouse Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences\, director of the Memory and Alzheimer’s Treatment Center at Johns Hopkins\, and director of the department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Johns Hopkins Bayview.\n\nThis webinar is part of a series of live one-hour Zoom conversations with Johns Hopkins physicians around health issues with live questions from the viewing audience.\n\nLearn more & register

SUMMARY:Getting Real World Data About Covid-19
DESCRIPTION:As the pandemic rages on\, society needs accurate information fast in order to generate a vaccine. But can researchers provide it? \nJoin STAT for a discussion on Sept. 17 that seeks to answer this question. Industry leaders and top researchers will consider how real world data can be used to evaluate vaccine efficacy and safety. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Assessing Research Gaps and Unmet Needs in Uterine Fibroids
DESCRIPTION:The stigmatization of menstrual issues has resulted in a lack of scientific innovation and public awareness for gynecological conditions such as uterine fibroids. Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous tumors that grow in and around the uterus and cause symptoms like heavy bleeding\, pelvic pain\, bloating\, urinary problems\, painful sex\, and back pain. \nAbout 26 million American women suffer from uterine fibroids\, and some of them experience severe and disabling symptoms\, leading to anemia\, urinary tract infections\, or kidney damage. Fibroids can also affect a woman’s fertility and are linked to some pregnancy complications. \nDespite the prevalence and significant impact of fibroids\, public awareness about the condition is extremely low. SWHR’s Endometriosis and Fibroids Network is working to engage and educate patients\, clinicians\, and health care decision-makers about the burden of these diseases. \n\nAs part of this work\, SWHR convened a diverse group of researchers\, clinicians\, and patients for a closed-door virtual roundtable meeting to discuss the gaps in research\, clinical practice\, policy\, and patient education that need to be filled to improve health outcomes for women with fibroids.

SUMMARY:Focus on Fibroids: What Do Women Need for Better Care?
DESCRIPTION:The Society for Women’s Health Research (SWHR) hosted a virtual panel discussion to raise awareness about research gaps and unmet needs related to diagnosis\, treatment\, and access to care for uterine fibroids. \nUterine fibroids are a significant public health issue affecting about 26 million American women\, with Black women at increased risk for the disease compared to white women. Fibroids are benign tumors that grow in and around the uterus\, and they can cause symptoms such as heavy or irregular menstrual bleeding and pelvic pressure or pain. \nPanelists shared their insights on how to improve the health of women with fibroids by driving innovation in research\, clinical care\, policymaking\, and education for this often overlooked\, underfunded\, and stigmatized disease. \nThis panel is part of the work of SWHR’s Endometriosis and Fibroids Network\, which seeks to engage and educate patients\, clinicians\, and health care decision-makers about the burden of these diseases\, which significantly impact the lives of the women.
