NIH’s Office of Research on Women’s Health (ORWH) invites you to attend this exciting and informative workshop!

Methods and Techniques for Integrating the Biological Variable Sex in Preclinical Research
Monday, October 20, 2014, 7:45 a.m.-5:30 p.m., John Edward Porter Neuroscience Building (Building 35), Room 640, NIH Campus, Bethesda, MD

One of the fundamental variables in preclinical biomedical research is sex: whether a cell, tissue, or animal is female or male. Biological sex is an important consideration for this research that underlies drug development, clinical trials, and prevention approaches. Learn how to incorporate sex to strengthen scientific design from leaders in the field at an upcoming full-day meeting hosted by the NIH Office of Research on Women’s Health. The event will also be available for viewing via videocast. For the most updated information and to view a draft agenda, please visit:http://orwh.od.nih.gov/news/scientificseminars.asp.
