Join the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) to celebrate the launch of NIHR’s inaugural sex and gender in research policy.
The NIHR acknowledges that sex and gender significantly shape individuals’ and populations’ experiences of health, illness, and social care, as well as broader health determinants. These factors can influence:
the medical conditions people are susceptible to
the symptoms people experience
the treatments and quality of care they receive
disease progression and overall health outcomes
how social care needs are identified, recognised, and addressed
health inequalities
