The conference featured researchers, clinicians, and health experts discussing the study of sex differences on the development of chronic diseases with the goal to improve the health and lives of women.
The faculty presented two studies related to community-based interventions for physical activity and exercise; one study focused on women with cancer, and the other focused on overweight and obese rural women.
