Join the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine Committee on the Assessment of NIH Research on Women’s Health for a public session as part of the committee’s first meeting. Dr. Janine Clayton from the NIH Office of Research on Women’s Health will deliver the charge to the committee, followed by Q&A with committee members.
This study aims to fill gaps in our understanding of women’s health research across all NIH Institutes and Centers. It will analyze how much funding is allocated to research on conditions that affect women specifically or are more common among women, and how these conditions are defined across different stages of life. The study will also assess sex differences and racial health disparities. Ultimately, the study will determine the funding needed to bridge gaps in women’s health research at NIH.
