SUMMARY:A New Vision for Women’s Health Research: Transformative Change at the NIH—Release Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Despite significant advances in healthcare\, critical gaps in women’s health remain. From hormonal health to heart disease\, women’s health research has historically been underfunded and overlooked. A new report from the National Academies\, “A New Vision for Women’s Health Research: Transformative Change at the National Institutes of Health (NIH)\,” reviews the state of women’s health and assesses funding levels for women’s health research at NIH. The authoring committee was asked to provide recommendations on NIH structure\, policies\, and programs to optimize women’s health research as well as recommendations for research priorities for conditions that are female-specific\, more common among women\, or that impact women differently. The committee was also asked to provide recommendations to build\, support\, and maintain a robust NIH workforce for women’s health research and identify the allocation of funding needed to address research gaps. \nLearn More

SUMMARY:Advancing Maternal and Infant Health: Centralized Data Collection for Postmarketing Evaluation Congressional Briefing and Interagency Discussion
DESCRIPTION:The American Academy of Allergy\, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI)\, as the facilitator of the Vaccines and Medications in Pregnancy Surveillance System (VAMPSS)\, invites you to attend a congressional briefing and discussion on feasibility and possible next steps to systematically obtain necessary data through new infrastructures/collaborations to address evidence gaps on safety in the treatment of pregnant and lactating women. \nGuest panel participants\, name and organization: \n\nModerator: Lynda Kabbash\, MD\, AAAAI Advocacy committee\nAlison Cernich\, PhD\, Deputy Director\, National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD)\nKeele Wurst\, PhD MS\, GSK\nChristina Chambers\, PhD MPH\, Mother To Baby Pregnancy Studies\nKathryn Schubert\, MPP CAE\, Society for Women’s’ Health Research – hear from SWHR at the event!\n\nBackground: In 2017\, the US Department of Health and Human Services\, through the National Institutes of Health\, Child Health and Development Institute (NICHD)\, launched the Task Force on Research Specific to Pregnant Women and Lactating Women (PRGLAC) to evaluate and recommend solutions to the lack of human safety data for drugs in pregnancy and lactation. Part of the 21st Century Cures Act\, the PRGLAC Task Force confirmed the lack of necessary information and recommended solutions\, and has subsequently initiated an ongoing evaluation process for implementation of those recommendations. \nIn November 2019 a workshop was convened by the National Heart\, Lung\, and Blood Institute\, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of Research on Women’s Health\, and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Office of Women’s Health\, titled “The Safety of Asthma Medications during Pregnancy and Lactation: Research Priorities and Methodology.” This workshop engaged stakeholders to mobilize efforts to address gaps in knowledge on asthma medication safety in pregnancy and lactation. \nThe 2024 National Academies of Sciences\, Engineering\, and Medicine (NASEM) report Advancing Clinical Research with Pregnant and Lactating Populations Overcoming Real and Perceived Liability Risks highlights the need for a consolidated safety data infrastructure to develop and maintain a centralized national registry for collecting and evaluating postmarketing data from pregnant and lactating women. \nRSVP: The AAAAI invites you to attend this briefing and conversation. Please email vampss@aaaai.org for more information or to RSVP.

SUMMARY:Bridging the Gap in Women's Health Research
DESCRIPTION:Women globally face barriers in the health care system stemming from a lack of research and education on women-specific conditions and how general conditions may affect women differently than men. Frequent reports of health care professionals dismissing women’s health concerns\, discriminating on the basis of age\, gender\, or race\, and ignoring women’s pain and discomfort exacerbate the existing gender biases in research and investments in women’s health. For example\, women are seven times more likely than men to have a heart condition be misdiagnosed or be discharged during a heart attack. \nOn March 18\, 2024\, President Biden signed the Executive Order on Advancing Women’s Health Research and Innovation and called on Congress to invest $12 billion investment in women’ s health research. Globally\, a recent publication from the World Economic Forum\, in collaboration with the McKinsey Health Institute\, highlighted the need to close the women’s health gap to realize a $1 trillion opportunity to improve lives and economies. Such gaps are present both in sex-specific conditions such as endometriosis and menopause\, and general health conditions such as heart disease\, cancer\, and other non-communicable diseases. \nPlease join the Wilson Center’s Maternal Health Initiative\, in collaboration with EMD Serono\, the healthcare business of Merck KGaA\, Darmstadt\, Germany\, for a panel discussion on the need to increase research and education on women’s health. Panelists will highlight ongoing efforts to close the gap in women’s health research\, which health conditions are receiving the most attention\, which countries are spearheading innovation\, and which conditions remain underfunded and neglected. The panelists will also discuss actionable strategies to improve women’s health globally. \nSWHR Chief Advocacy Officer Irene Aninye is a speaker at this event! \nLearn More

SUMMARY:How to Talk About Women’s Health Policy over the Holidays!
DESCRIPTION:Approximately 75 million women in the U.S. are currently perimenopausal\, menopausal\, or postmenopausal. 1.3 million women enter menopause each year and will likely spend one-third to one-half of their lives postmenopausal\, yet their health needs are often ignored or dismissed. \nThis briefing will provide a primer on the personal and societal impacts of menopause and explore policy steps that can be taken to improve women’s health. Hosts will discuss what women experience during this stage of life and its impact on them personally and professionally. They will also share the latest research on the economic impact of menopause and related midlife health conditions. And attendees will learn more about bipartisan policy solutions to improve women’s midlife health through greater focus on and resources for research\, health professional training\, care coordination and public awareness and education. \n\nModerator: Claire Gill\, Founder and President\, National Menopause Foundation\n\nPanelists: \n\nShauna Rust\, Health Policy Advisor\, Office of U.S. Senator Patty Murray\nCassidy Hobbs\, Legislative Assistant\, Office of U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski\nJennifer Sauer\, Senior Research Advisor\, AARP\nKaren Chong\, Vice President of  Audience Strategy\, Age Inclusion\, AARP\nJennifer Lanoff\, WHNP-BC\, MSN\, RN\, JD\, member of NMF Medical Advisory Committee (MAC)\n\nLearn More
