“for a girl” is a phrase that unfortunately comes up too frequently for girls and young women. There is a well-documented failure to attract girls and young women to the fields of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) as well as medicine and research, and a corresponding lower frequency with which women enter these fields, as compared with men. There is also a considerable dearth of research that is focused specifically on women, their health and well-being.
