JAMA Network Introduces JAMA+ Women’s Health Platform
The JAMA Network has unveiled a groundbreaking digital initiative titled JAMA+ Women’s Health, a comprehensive platform dedicated to enhancing the visibility and accessibility of rigorous, peer-reviewed research focused on women’s health worldwide. This innovative resource seeks to transcend traditional boundaries of women’s health, expanding the discourse well beyond the usual confines of reproductive health, gynecologic and breast cancers, and menopause. Instead, it offers a nuanced, multidisciplinary perspective that embraces the complexity of health issues uniquely or disproportionately affecting women, reflecting the evolving scientific landscape and clinical priorities.
