Research Partners

Women’s Health Research at Yale has integrated the study of the effects of sex and gender into new collaborative grants with key research partners in diverse areas of health.

WHRY’s goals and priorities are to generate research of practical benefit to women, and to communicate our research findings to health care professionals and the community – all with the intention of enhancing the quality of life for women, men and families. We do so by:

• Developing new, innovative projects in clinical and basic research, health services and disease prevention
• Addressing understudied aspects of women's health
• "Mainstreaming" women's health research
• Enhancing collaborations among investigators and across disciplines, areas of expertise and departments and institutions
• Identifying new treatment options
• Promoting preventive strategies
• Encouraging health behaviors
