Moreover, we will discuss the challenges researchers face in bridging the gap between research evidence and in person practice, the role of community allyship in advancing women’s health, and the barriers that marginalized groups encounter in accessing quality healthcare and health-related information.
Whether you’re a healthcare professional, a student, or someone interested in women’s health research, this conversation is for you. Tune in to learn how we can all contribute to combating this public health challenge!
