Conference - Women’s Health Collaborative Summit

The WHOLE Centre, HER MIND network, Tübingen IRTG 2804, and WOMHER are joining forces for a shared programme focused on women’s health at the intersection of reproductive transitions, mental health, and pain.

Our vision is to advance women's health research through stronger partnerships and broader cross-institutional collaboration.

 Who will be speaking?

The program will feature presentations from researchers across our community, ranging from PhD students and early-career researchers to senior investigators, alongside invited keynote speakers Emily Jacobs (UC Santa Barbara), Gabriella Conti (University College London), Magnus Boman (Karolinska Institutet), and Anton Pottegård (University of Southern Denmark & Odense University Hospital).  

 Who can join?

We welcome researchers at all career stages, advisory board members, patient and public involvement representatives, representatives from governmental and funding agencies, and other women’s health enthusiasts.

Note: registration priority will be given to the members of the hosting centres.

Venue

The conference will take place in Rudbeck Laboratory, Rudbecksalen.
