The Institute for Women's Health Research at Northwestern University publishes a monthly e-newsletter on timely issues in women's health. Our January 2012 edition focuses on scientific breakthroughs and public policies that we think could influence future research and the clinical care women women receive.   We call these 'game changers'.

There have been many exciting breakthroughs in sex and gender medicine but there is still much work that needs to be done.   We also need to remain vigilant as women's health issues are debated during the upcoming elections.      To view this e-newsletter click HERE.        After you have read it, let us know what YOU  think the major stories of 2011 in women's health!
