Women’s health is not an asterisk
We’re building first-of-its-kind female-specific platforms to help researchers understand the disorders that effect us most.
TWO-TIME GITCOIN GRANT RECIPIENT
Did You Know…
Despite women experiencing OCD at twice the rate of men, there is very little female-specific research. We’re building the first OCD platform to backfill decades of missing female data. You can help us improve OCD care for all women by sharing your experience. Join the waitlist to receive an email invitation when the app is ready.
What if women could vote on the future of their healthcare?
We aim to do just that. Join us.
