At WellTheory, we're proud to join Evvy for the third annual #EqualResearchDay on June 10th. This day is dedicated to promoting inclusive research, sharing our stories, and working to close the gender health gap. We feel this deeply at WellTheory, given that 80% of autoimmune patients are women, yet these conditions tend to be underserved, under-researched, and under-studied. Of the estimated 80-100 autoimmune conditions, women are: -16x more likely to develop Sjogren’s Syndrome -3x more likely to be diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis -2-3x more likely to be diagnosed with Celiac Disease Closing the gender health gap starts with clinical research, and we're grateful to be in good company with other organizations that are dedicated to upleveling the standard of care for other conditions that largely impact women and other minorities.
It’s #EqualResearchDay! 💥 Evvy created #EqualResearchDay on June 10 because women weren’t required in U.S. clinical research until June 10th, 1993 (Think Equal Pay Day but for the gender health gap!) To this day, there are countless holes ⚫ in our scientific and medical understanding of the female body — and that directly impacts us as patients. If you’ve ever experienced delays in diagnoses, failed treatments, mystery symptoms with no answers, or medical gaslighting — #EqualResearchDay is for you. This year, we brought together 46 innovative companies and compiled 100 Effed Facts about the Gender Health Gap across 12 health areas: ⚫ Autoimmune Disease ⚫ Brain + Mental Health ⚫ Cancer ⚫ Endometriosis ⚫ Fertility ⚫ Heart Health ⚫ Hormonal Health ⚫ Maternal Health ⚫ Medical Gaslighting ⚫ Menopause ⚫ Menstrual & Sexual Health ⚫ Vaginal & Urinary Health Earlier this week, we launched a limited-edition coffee table book featuring all 100 Effed Facts to benefit Women's Health Access Matters (you can order a copy at EqualResearchDay.com before they sell out... !) But we decided these facts are too important not to share widely — so we are posting a public version here on LinkedIn. 𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗖𝗔𝗡 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗣: 💥 Share this post (and add your story about why equal research matters to you)! 💥 Learn more and shop the limited edition coffee table book to benefit WHAM at EqualResearchDay.com The female body shouldn’t be a medical mystery — together, let’s close the gender health gap for good. #equalresearchday2024 #evvy #genderhealthgap #closethegenderhealthgap ——— 2024 Equal Research Day Collaborative: Evvy Aavia adyn Allara AOA Dx Bloomer Tech Caraway Clue Cofertility Conceive Diem DotLab Doveras Elektra Health Elix Frame Gabbi Gaia Gameto Health In Her HUE HerMD Hey Jane The Honey Pot Company Iron Health Julie Products Inc.

At WellTheory, we were thrilled that The White House and First Lady Jill Biden announced their $100M investment in women's health initiatives, along with President Joe Biden's $12B proposal. But there is still more to be done. Our co-founder and CEO, Ellen Rudolph, along with fellow founders Joanna Strober and Priya Abani, were featured on Fast Company discussing the additional work that needs to be done in autoimmune care, menopause, and heart health to support women. Read on to learn more about why digital health innovators are key to filling these and other care gaps, and how government institutions, venture capitalists, employers, payors, and health systems can support them.
While I'm heartened by the White House Initiative on Women's Health Research and President Joe Biden's $12B proposal, the reality is that women's health needs more than just the White House. I teamed up with Joanna Strober and Priya Abani to put pen to paper and share why we need to invest in research in autoimmune disease, menopause, and heart disease—conditions that disproportionately impact women—and how we can bridge the glaring gaps that exist in women's health today. Very grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with two female CEOs I deeply admire who are building companies with such critical missions that are truly reimagining the standard of care for women's health. Thank you to Fast Company for providing a platform and shining a light on some of the underserved areas within women's health that aren't as talked about. https://lnkd.in/gpTufsx3
POV: A $100 million investment in women's healthcare isn't enough. This is what we need

We are thrilled to be in NJ to present to the membership of Innovation Roundtable, a World 50 Group Community EHIR, a coalition of the country's largest and most progressive employers focused on accelerating the adoption of innovation to improve employee health and productivity.
