Women’s health – an unmet need
Women represent 51% of the population. Yet, only about 1% of healthcare research and innovation is invested in female-specific conditions beyond oncology.
We are committed to advancing women’s health and wellbeing in all its dimensions: physical, mental, and social, and addressing unique health issues such as reproductive health, menstrual cycles, pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, and conditions like osteoporosis, breast and cervical cancers.
A thriving hub calls all service providers.
A lot of Women’s Health R&D has already found its way to Turku. We want to see more of you and become worldwide leading experts in the field.
