CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
Innovations in Gender, Sex, and Health Research
Every Cell is Sexed, Every Person is Gendered
November 22-23, 2010 – Toronto, Ontario
Innovations in Gender, Sex, and Health Research will showcase excellence and innovations across all domains of gender, sex, and health research, including but not limited to biomedical, clinical, health services and policy, population and public health, and social science research. The conference will highlight how accounting for gender and sex leads to improvements in health interventions, policies, and outcomes. It will explore advances and challenges related to ethics and knowledge translation in gender, sex, and health research.
The conference will bring together a multidisciplinary group of researchers with a shared interest in gender, sex, and health. It aims to promote networking and collaborative engagement among these researchers, as well as health care providers, policy-makers, community groups, and others with an interest in this topic. Innovations in Gender, Sex, and Health Research will foster training and educational opportunities for emerging gender, sex, and health researchers. We are seeking submissions for posters, oral presentations, symposia, and workshops within the conference streams. The conference streams are new discoveries, methodological innovations, emerging issues, changing policy and practice, working with communities, integrating gender and sex in research, knowledge translation, and ethics. We invite both Canadian and international submissions.
