Did you know that almost half of the women's health burden reflects conditions that affect women disproportionally? Women spend 25% more of their lives in poor health than men, due to poor care delivery and a lack of research and treatment for diseases that affect women more. That’s why we need: 1⃣ More research on diseases that disproportionately affect women (47%) and how sex affects disease manifestation (4%) 2⃣ Diverse clinical trial enrollment and leadership 3⃣ Equitable representation in all fields of medicine Women As One is on a mission to help lift the global women’s health burden in partnership with industry leaders.

That’s why Women As One designs programmatic offerings and career support for women in cardiology to ensure greater gender equity in medicine.
