The Science Gap: Women's Health in Focus
Join us for an evening dedicated to closing the gap in women's health research and care. The Science Gap: Women’s Health in Focus is a collaborative event between TejoMed and Springer Nature, bringing together science, medicine, and real-world insights to spotlight a critical issue: how women’s health has been historically underfunded and overlooked by research and clinical systems.
This event offers both a macro perspective on systemic scientific gaps and a micro focus on the lived reality of women’s hormonal health.
