Abstract
Women face unique and multifaceted challenges throughout their lifespans, shaped by biological, societal, and health care-related factors. These challenges have led to gender disparities in disease burden, access to care, and representation in medical research, underscoring the need to increase targeted investments in women's health. Historically, research on diseases that disproportionately affect women has been underfunded, hindering progress in closing gender health gaps. In March 2024, the President of the United States signed an Executive Order on Women's Health Research and Innovation, signaling a new commitment by the federal government to prioritize women's health research and address these disparities. The Society for Women's Health Research (SWHR) has consistently led the charge to identify research gaps and advocate for evidence-based initiatives to improve the health and well-being of women. In celebration of its 35th anniversary, SWHR introduces a 2025 Women's Health Research Agenda, which outlines key priorities in the areas of uterine health, autoimmune disease, and cardiometabolic health. This agenda serves as a strategic roadmap for stakeholders to engage with critical areas of women's health, fostering collaboration and accelerating research to address the unmet needs of women across the lifespan.
