mapping the ecosystem
Bringing the women's health ecosystem into focus.
Reports from McKinsey, the Gates Foundation, and others already map real pieces of this picture, and so does research from individual institutions, investors, and advocates. Women's Health Hub brings those pieces together into one shared, continuously updated view, starting with the US ecosystem.
the starting point
For most of medical history, medicine has defaulted to a male standard.
The science of sex-based differences is under-resourced and scattered,
that's why the Hub exists.
Why we exist
Connection is the accelerant.
Real, substantial work already exists. McKinsey and the Gates Foundation have published real research, and so have individual institutions, investors, and advocates across the ecosystem. What's missing isn't documentation, it's a shared, continuously updated view that brings it all together in one place. Women's Health Hub isn't here to run that work or organize it. It's here to connect it, so researchers, funders, founders, clinicians, and advocates can find each other, build on what already exists, and stop working from separate, incomplete pictures.

Map the Ecosystem
A complete, searchable picture of who is working in women's health, companies, investors, researchers, health systems, advocates, and policymakers, and where the gaps are.
Build the Knowledge Base
The Women's Health Compendium: a living, curated catalog of what's known, and what's still missing, about sex-based difference, condition by condition. Live today as an early proof of concept.
Mobilize the Community
Put the map and knowledge base to work: help people find each other, see where the openings to collaborate are, and build on what's already underway.
The gaps
Real work, six lanes that don't yet connect.
These are structural, ecosystem-wide gaps, not something any one company or nonprofit is built to close on its own. For each one, the question is the same: who's already working on it, what are they doing, and where's the opening to connect efforts instead of duplicating them.

Why the hub
A shared map for the whole ecosystem.
The first mapped ecosystem of its kind.
-
The only ecosystem map built specifically around the science of sex-based differences.
-
Connects organizations, events, and knowledge into one continuously updated picture.
-
Growing every month, not a static snapshot.
Focused on the science of sex-based difference
-
Dedicated specifically to the science of sex-based difference across the lifespan.
-
We connect what already exists rather than duplicating it.
-
Collaboration-first: the Hub accelerates initiatives, it doesn't own them.
