Abstract
Abstract: Sex and gender impact all areas of health. However, they are not consistently considered in research design. The lack of a sufficient research base regarding the impacts of sex or gender affects the ability to develop health-care professional curricula that include this content for learners across the spectrum of experience. Teaching the importance of sex and gender is critical in training the next generations of health-care professionals and researchers. In addition to improving the current research base, there is a need to raise awareness of this topic among faculty and a need for additional faculty development materials. Learners, clinical faculty, researchers, journal reviewers, and journal leadership all play a role in improving the knowledge base regarding sex and gender and subsequently incorporating this information into curricula.
