Integrating Sex & Gender Considerations at the Laboratory Bench: A Colloquium for Experimental Biomedical Researchers

FY 2011-12

Summary
The meeting will bring together biomedical researchers undertaking experimental research with animal models, tissue samples, cell cultures, and experimental human studies, to develop a framework for considering sex and gender in these contexts. Over the course of the 2&1/2-day meeting, the group will have opportunities for small-group interactions to develop consensus on oustanding issues to be resolved in the area. Invitees will be asked to give poster presentations about the challenges and successes they have had in integrating sex and/or gender into their research, and participate actively in a series of attendee-driven workshops intended to elaborate the opportunities and challenges in the integration of sex and gender in this type of research. Ultimately, we will capture the emergent consenses arising from the meeting for further development as research tools, with a view to assisting other basic experimental scientists seeking to incorporate sex & gender considerations in their own work.
