New research data shows the powerful effects that historically overlooked women's health factors have on the brain – including the rhythmic production of steroid hormones across the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and the transition to menopause. Learn about critical clues indicating that endocrine transition states are a period of vulnerability for neurological conditions like depression and dementia – disorders that are twice as common in women than men – as well as larger implications for women’s health.
The spring 2023 season will be in person at Center for BrainHealth (lunch provided) and live-streamed. Register free of charge for the season and join us for as many talks as you are able.
