This virtual scientific workshop will convene members of the scientific community to discuss methods and best practices in biomedical and sociobehavioral research on gender roles, gender norms, gender inequity, and structural sexism.
Hosted by NIH Office of Research on Women’s Health (ORWH) in partnership with
Why Attend?
In recognition of the significant health impacts of gender as a social and cultural variable, the NIH ORWH and the Eunice Kennedy Shriver NICHD convened a series of roundtable discussions for NIH staff members in the fall of 2021. Participants discussed the landscape of NIH-supported research on gender roles, gender norms, and gender inequity and identified opportunities in this space.
This scientific workshop is an exciting opportunity to convene the extramural community, NIH scientific and program staff members, and other stakeholders to discuss methods and best practices for biomedical and sociobehavioral research on gender roles, gender norms, and gender inequity.

High-Level Report Back from Concurrent Sessions
ORWH is the first Public Health Service office dedicated specifically to promoting women’s health research within and beyond the NIH scientific community. ORWH was established in September 1990. ORWH crafted and implements the Trans-NIH Strategic Plan for Women’s Health Research in partnership with NIH Institutes and Centers (ICs) and co-funds research on the effects that sex and gender have on health. ORWH also collaborates with ICs, the NIH Office of Extramural Research, and the NIH Office of Intramural Research to monitor adherence to NIH’s inclusion policies, which ensure that women and people in underserved racial and ethnic groups are represented in NIH-supported clinical research.
