Discover Women’s Health Research website launched

The U.S. National Institutes of Health has launched DiscoverWHR, a “centralized resource for women’s health research and information that supports NIH-wide efforts to close the gaps in women’s health across the life course”. On the website, you’ll find information about the latest research on topics such as menopause, polycystic ovary syndrome, autoimmune diseases, and other conditions affecting women’s health.

DiscoverWHR is a collaboration between the National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Library of Medicine (NLM) , and the Office of Research on Women’s Health (ORWH), in support of the White House Initiative on Women’s Health Research. The goal of the portal is to give easy access to the public, health care professionals, and researchers on the latest discoveries and current research funded by NIH for women’s health, ultimately closing research gaps and improving prevention, detection, and treatment of health issues affecting girls and women.
