About the event

Although women represent half of the planet’s population, many health aspects relating specifically to women are still out of focus of general scientific research and underrepresented in clinical studies and medical recommendations, resulting in misdiagnosis and bias in research, diagnostics, and therapies for female patients. In celebration of International Women’s Day, we talk with Reena Sidhu, Commercial Enterprise Lead, Health Innovation West Midlands to find out what they are doing to bridge the Gender Gap in Health Tech.
