Dr. Jane Salmon & Dr. Fanny Elahi on the Future of Women’s Health

Alzheimer’s might be considered a "women's disease." Did you know that women make up 2/3 of new Alzheimer’s patients and comprise 60% of unpaid caregivers for those with the disease? And the Alzheimer's epidemic is just one example of why there needs to be a "women's lens" on medical research. Dr. Jane Salmon and Dr. Fanny Elahi join Kim Azzarelli to discuss why adding more women to medical research — both as scientists and subjects — is urgent for everyone’s health.
