DESCRIPTION:"Blueprint to close the women’s health gap: How to improve live
 s and economies for all"\n\nJoin us for the first seminar series event host
 ed by the Women's Health Program (WHx) at the MIT Media Lab\, featuring Meg
 an Ann Greenfield\, who is an affiliated leader of the McKinsey Health Inst
 itute (MHI).\n\nDr. Canan Dagdeviren\, head of the Conformable Decoders res
 earch group and WHx Faculty Lead\, will moderate the event. The WHx seminar
  series is supported by the WHx program and the Program in Media Arts and S
 ciences (MAS). \n\nAbstract\n\nEven though women live longer on average\, t
 hey also spend 25% more time in poor health than men\, and most of this hea
 lth burden happens during their working years. McKinsey Health Institute’s 
 latest report\, “Blueprint to Close the Women’s Health Gap: How to improve 
 lives and economies for all\,” identifies actionable steps to advance bette
 r health for women and build stronger economies. This report provides a blu
 eprint for developing a comprehensive\, global view of women’s health. It a
 lso addresses the broader women’s health gap\, exploring nine medical condi
 tions that impact women uniquely\, differently\, or disproportionately\, co
 mprising one-third of the women’s health gap. Closing the women’s health ga
 p could unlock up to 75 million years of higher quality life for women\, an
 d could unlock $400 billion in global annual GDP by 2040.
