SUMMARY:Overcoming Barriers to Women’s Participation in Clinical Research
DESCRIPTION:This is an in-person event. This event took place in Rayburn House Office Building\, Room 2060.\nFor decades\, women have been underrepresented — and at times\, explicitly excluded — from clinical research. This historic imbalance has left gaps in our understanding of women’s health\, disease progression\, effective diagnostics\, and appropriate treatment strategies. While meaningful progress has been made in recent years\, persistent regulatory and socioeconomic barriers continue to limit the full inclusion of women in clinical trials across the lifespan. \nIn recognition of Women’s Health Research Day on January 25\, the Society for Women’s Health Research (SWHR) hosted a congressional briefing focused on the barriers women face in participating in clinical trials. This forum provided an opportunity for speakers to share their experiences and expertise\, discuss ongoing challenges\, and propose solutions and next steps to foster increased participation of women in research. Together\, we celebrate the strides achieved so far\, address systemic challenges\, and explore actionable strategies to ensure that medical innovation truly serves everyone.\nThis event is took place in Rayburn House Office Building\, Room 2060. \n*This event is widely attended and relevant to official duties \nThis is an SWHR Event.
