Quick Glance: Biden to Sign Decree Advancing Women's Health Research
  • President Joe Biden is expected to sign a decree aimed at advancing women's health research by strengthening data collection and providing better funding opportunities for biomedical research.

  • The decree aims to address inequalities in medical research between women and men, particularly for illnesses more common in women.

  • The decree not only seeks to improve health research but also has political implications, as women are crucial to Biden's reelection efforts.

  • The National Institutes of Health are also launching a new initiative around menopause and the treatment of symptoms to identify and close research gaps.
