Women's Health

CDE faculty have a strong commitment to women's health research. This research program seeks to understand health outcomes that are specific to, or show differential effects in, women across the lifecourse. Women's health is defined broadly from reproductive health, including menstrual cycle function and fertility, to cardiovascular disease, and cancer.
