NEW HAVEN — After five years of supporting leading-edge research to better understand women’s health, Women’s Health Research at Yale will host a reception at Sage Restaurant American Grille & Oyster Bar in New Haven on September 29. The event will celebrate the plethora of accomplishments that are saving women’s lives.
The organization’s mission is to foster the initiation of cutting-edge investigations in women’s health that facilitate the integration of research findings into personal and clinical practice and result in direct practical benefit for women. The dream of Carolyn Mazure, director, this is the only interdisciplinary program dedicated to researching women’s health issues in the country. Through its grant-making arm, the Ethel F. Donaghue Women’s Health Investigator Program, researchers determined that women’s heart attack symptoms differ from those of men, findings that initiated the Women’s Heart Advantage Program. The Investigator Program has provided over $3 million to over 40 investigators.
