Women’s Health Research Day is a celebration and promotion of research activities in Women's Health at VCU. The annual program presented by the Institute for Women’s Health, now in its 17th year, includes a plenary symposium, poster awards and reception highlighting women’s health research by VCU faculty and students.
All VCU faculty, residents, students, staff, and community members interested in women’s health research are encouraged to attend. Authors with original research are invited to submit poster abstracts in any research area that focuses on women’s health or sex/gender differences. Awards will be given for best posters in Basic Science, Clinical and Translational Research, and Community and Public Health Research. The best overall poster by a junior investigator will be selected to win the Elizabeth Fries Young Investigator Award. In addition, a Building Interdisciplinary Bridges in Women’s Health Research award will be given to the poster that best demonstrates interdisciplinary collaboration in women’s health research.
This years plenary session is titled: Health Equity for Maternal Child Wellness. The session is co-chaired by Dr. Amy Salisbury and Dr. Susan Bodnar-Deren. Abstract submission closed.
