A New Vision for Women's Health Research
Women make up over half of the U.S. population, yet research on women’s health conditions is severely lacking. For example, depression is twice as common in women, but antidepressant clinical trials have historically underrepresented women and excluded pregnant women altogether. Learn more in this short animation based on our 2024 report, "A New Vision for Women's Health Research: Transformative Change at the National Institutes of Health,” which outlines specific recommendations for research priorities; training and education efforts to build a robust women’s health research workforce; improving internal structures and processes; soliciting, reviewing, and supporting women’s health research; and ensuring appropriate levels of funding.
