Let's dive deep into the world of women's health science at this innovative event!
Event Organizers
Christine Hendon, Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering & Vice Dean of Engagement & Strategic Partnerships, Columbia Engineering
Kristin Myers, Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Columbia University
Description
Join us for the Science for Women's Health Innovation Symposium 2026, hosted by Columbia Engineering & the Vagelos College of Physicians & Surgeons on Friday, January 30th, 2026.
We're bringing together leaders from industry, medicine, engineering, patient advocacy, & education to break down silos & create the R&D engine women's health has been missing. By fostering cross-sector collaboration, we'll build the infrastructure for data-driven authoritative modeling & AI-enabled simulation in women's health.
This full-day symposium focuses on advancing diagnostic & therapeutic solutions for gynecologic, pregnancy, labor, & pelvic floor health. Featuring keynote addresses, expert panels, & a student poster session, the day will establish pathways for the research & innovation infrastructure the field needs.
