What does it mean to be a woman participating in research in LMICs?

In this webinar, Dr. Vina Vaswani will bring a rich mix of experiences in bioethics research and education on participation of women in clinical trials within a low and middle income country. The talk will cover recruitment decisions, negotiating participant responsibilities, balancing domestic burdens and sensitizing researchers to the nuances of gender based issues in research.
