Join us for the next MedTech Links event, this round focusing on ԹϺ innovations around Women’s Health. Many conditions under the women’s health umbrella are oft underfunded, understudied and misunderstood. This event aims to showcase the work being undertaken at ԹϺ to improve diagnostics, treatments and interventions, and long-term solutions for women’s health conditions, to give insight into work being undertaken to reduce the effects of sex and gender on healthcare, and to provide opportunities for our innovators to network with an invited audience from industry.
