VA R&D Women's Health Research Conference
VA leadership is committed to making VA a healthcare leader for women's health. In November 2004, VA's Office of Research and Development gathered experts from within and outside VA for a two day working meeting entitled "Moving Toward a VA's Women's Health Research Agenda: Setting Evidence-Based Research Priorities for Improving the Health and Care of Women Veterans."
The meeting agenda (74 KB, PDF) details the meeting presentations, workgroup deliberations, reports, and panel response. The presentations are archived here for on-demand viewing. Macromedia Flash player is required for viewing the meeting archives.
