Bronwyn Graham on women in medicine

For too long, medical research has centred on the male body; often excluding females entirely in the name of simplicity and control. But what have we missed by treating sex hormones as a problem rather than a vital part of the picture? UNSW’s Bronwyn Graham explores the serious gaps in our understanding of female health and the urgent need to include women more meaningfully in scientific research. It’s not just about equity. It’s about better science, better treatments and better outcomes for everyone. -- We're the official channel of UNSW Sydney, a brilliantly located university between the coast and the city.
