Women’s Health and Gender

Biomedical research has demonstrated the importance of sex, gender and intersectionality in health, wellbeing and disease progression to the extent that it is now difficult to justify healthcare and research without a gender perspective. In this programme we support the integration of a sex/gender perspective into research content in order to fill existing knowledge gaps, increase the reproducibility of studies by making them bias free, contribute to minimising delays in diagnosis and unexpected adverse effects, and increase equity and social justice. In addition, we promote research on women’s health and women’s diseases to contribute to the impact of our research on personalised medicine.
