Expanding Women's Health and Sex Differences Research
The Ludeman Family Center for Women’s Health Research is regarded as one of the best places to conduct research that includes women and considers the distinct but linked concepts of sex (biological) and gender (social) differences.
We mentor and fund the next generation of researchers, supporting their cutting-edge research on issues that pose a significant threat to women’s health – cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and the intersection of mental health and physical health in those diseases. Join us in supporting new, life-saving discoveries and in learning more about women’s health across the lifespan.
Applications are now open for Early-Career Faculty Development Awards (seed grants). Eligibility spans the full spectrum of research (e.g. basic, clinical, translational, population science, implementation and big data). Interdisciplinary approaches, innovative ideas and use of technologically advanced methodological approaches are encouraged. Topics must focus on women’s health or sex and gender differences.
Grants of $25,000 and $50,000.
Applications due June 9, 2023 by 5pm MT.
