How Medical Research Ignores Half the Population with Dr. Cat Bohannon
Dr. Cat Bohannon, researcher and author, joins us on this episode to unpack how default assumptions in science have sidelined female bodies and what’s at stake when women’s biology and gendered experiences remain under-researched. She explains how men’s health benefits from women’s health research, the importance of a bio-psycho-social approach, and discusses the history of breastfeeding. Cat also talks about what she learned writing her book Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution.
