Meet the team of EU-SABV! This is a group of researchers with a special interest of including sex as a biological variable into their work. For the next 4 years, this team will work to enhance current SABV policy in preclinical research! #SABV @costprogramme.bsky.social @jaricivana.bsky.social

Happy and honored to be at the Erice Workshop “Epigenetics: From Molecules to Behavior”, where I’ll be talking about epigenetic dynamics and how they connect hormones, environment, and behavior. Looking forward to 3 days of discussions and beautiful views!

🚀 Job Opportunity! Are you passionate about neuroscience, women’s health, and large-scale neuroimaging studies? I am hiring a 3-year Postdoc to join the @erc.europa.eu project #MappingPerimenopause! karriere.charite.de/en/job-vacan...

Also super proud of Rachel for her first oral presentation 👏 She did a great job presenting the Estrous App...stay tuned exciting things coming from us🤗 in the upcoming months... Btw, all the talks were great 👏👏👏

A year ago, Katharina Gapp and @cavazzalab.bsky.social started the Zuri-Repro Network to foster interdisciplinary collaboration in reproductive biology. Today, we enjoyed the 2nd meeting with an amazing program of keynotes, fash talks from young researchers, poster session. Thank you 🙏

Join us for the Swiss Steroid Symposium on June 27th @unibe.ch Happy to be there and to talk about the importance of considering sex steroid hormone status in basic and preclinical animal research. There are still some spots left and registration is free 👇

Also super proud of Rachel, my PhD student, who did a great job at the poster session at #MNS2025. We're about to start a super cool experiment, so stay tuned!

Big applause 👏👏👏 to amazing @christinadalla.bsky.social and to the whole #MNS2025 organizing committee

Huge thanks to everyone who joined our Symposium #MNS2025 on #SABV, as well as to the amazing speakers! Take-home: It is not enough to simply include both sexes, development, settings, and context also matter. We need to take these factors into account to increase the translational relevance

Time to go home... It was an amazing 5 days at #MNS2025. It was great to see old friends and also to make new ones. Super interesting sessions on sex differences and female brain health. Enjoyed every single minute!

Thanks to everyone who joined our session at #FELSA2025 today 🙏 I think we really did a great job @jeffreymogil.bsky.social Ben Phillips, Francesca Maranghi, Thorsten Buch...Goodbye, Athens... Next stop Chania #MNS25

If you are at #FELSA2025 join us tomorrow for the session on the importance of accounting for sex in animal experimentation #SABV

What a week! I am thrilled to share that I’ve been awarded a highly competitive #COSTAction #CA24168 to launch the first pan-European research network dedicated to promoting and enhancing the current Sex as a Biological Variable #SABV initiative 🤩 www.cost.eu/70-new-cost-...

#Endometriosis is a common cause of pelvic pain affecting approximately 10% of reproductive-age women. This narrative review summarizes the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of endometriosis. #MedSky ja.ma/3RRLzOW

Great afternoon today at the annual meeting of the Cardiovascular Research Center @unibern.bsky.social, discussing why including #sex and #gender in basic, preclinical, and clinical #research is essential, and exploring the best ways to practically incorporate it into study designs.

"Menstruation Matters" was launched recently. Our November Focus explores periods from a multidisciplinary lens, addressing myths, period poverty, and supporting menstrual health across diverse populations. [1/14] www.nature.com/collections/...

This review paper on the oxytocin receptor is an absolute tour de force. I regularly refer to it and can't imagine how much work must have gone into writing this. It's basically a mini-textbook journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10....

Happy to have been one of the speakers at last week's Symposium on Sex and Gender Medicine, organized by @stefaniadelprete.bsky.social @dkfz.bsky.social As someone who began organizing biannual #SABV symposiums in 🇨🇭 4 years ago, it’s great to see more European universities promoting this topic!

Our latest review-with @bonniee-leee.bsky.social where we pour our ❤️🧠 & soul to outline our position on why we are so passionate about harnessing the power of sex differences & within sex diff to propel precision medicine forward let us know if we convince you www.nature.com/articles/s41...
