We are dedicated to expanding opportunities for Kentucky women to participate in medical research. As more women participate in medical studies, researchers are discovering that women may have very different reactions than men to the same drugs and treatments. The Center's goal is for all Kentucky women to fill out the Kentucky Women's Health Registry survey and consider volunteering for medical studies that will help us advance medical knowledge about women's health.
