Amy Flood, Executive Director of Women’s Health Collective Canada, was recently featured on The Discovery Pod to discuss the urgent need to close Canada’s women’s health research funding gap — with only 7% of national health research dollars dedicated to women’s health, and just 2.5% when oncology is excluded. She shares how the organization is addressing this disparity through partnerships, advocacy, and public education, and highlights opportunities for systemic change — from advancing gender-based research standards to tackling the $3–3.5 billion annual cost of unmanaged menopause symptoms.
