Event Calendar

This summer, Women’s Health Research at Yale and the Society for Women’s Health Research (SWHR) joined forces to bring together leaders from academia, government, nonprofit organizations, industry, and media as well as students and women’s health champions, to demonstrate how collaborations can accelerate discoveries into real-world investment.

Yale School of Medicine (YSM) was awarded a grant of nearly $25 million by the Aligning Research to Impact Autism (ARIA) initiative. The award, which is part of ARIA's Human Developmental Neurobiology Research Hub, is focused on building foundational maps and models of the developing human brain and to clarify how and when autism diverges from typical development.

Anh Phu, a member of the Dixit Laboratory at Yale School of Medicine, was recently named recipient of a National Institutes of Health (NIH) Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award F30 Predoctoral Fellowship.

In a new study, Yale researchers identified an unexpected mechanism that challenges a long-held assumption about the brain’s hunger circuitry.

In June, the Yale Cancer Center's Office of Collaborative Excellence celebrated the achievements of its trainees by hosting its inaugural End-of-Year Celebration, recognizing a year of scientific discovery and professional growth.

Women’s Health Research at Yale announced the five latest pilot projects to join its program, and a partnership with Yale Cancer Center.

This summer, we saw a first-of-its-kind cross-sector collaboration – a leader in academic research and a national women’s health nonprofit joined forces to amplify the power of women’s health research and investment. The collaborative symposium “From Discovery to Impact: Accelerating Women's Health Research Through Science, Policy, and Investment” hosted by Women’s Health Research at Yale and the Society for Women’s Health Research (SWHR) on June 15 in New Haven, Conn., welcomed more than 50 speakers, researchers from 28 departments across Yale, and gathered 350+ attendees for a day-long event that covered the power of women’s health research through an arc of discovery to practical impact.

A massive scientific initiative to decode how aging reshapes the human body reached a major milestone this month. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Cellular Senescence Network (SenNet) published its first wave of discoveries, highlighted by a cover commentary in the journal Cell led by Rong Fan, PhD, Harold Hodgkinson Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Yale School of Engineering and Applied Science (SEAS) and of Pathology at Yale School of Medicine (YSM), alongside researchers from nine other institutions.

A new study co-led by Yale scientists reveals that antibodies from some long COVID patients attacked brain and nerve tissues, a finding that could point toward treatments.
