💊 Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death of women, responsible for 1 in 3 deaths each year—claiming more lives than all forms of cancer combined.
💉 Nearly 1 in 10 women will face the challenges of postpartum depression after giving birth, yet alarmingly, almost half of these mothers go undiagnosed by healthcare professionals.
⚖ Women remain significantly underrepresented in STEM and research, holding just 27% of jobs in STEM fields, while only 38% of participants in clinical cardiovascular trials are women.
