“The possibilities of bioimpedance in women's health” 
Presented by Valene Garr Barry. 

Barry's research investigates bioimpedance as a non-invasive, cost-effective method to detect insulin resistance and identify women with conditions such as pre-diabetes, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and infertility.

“'Y' are women more anxious?” 
Presented by Taylor Davis. 

Women are more likely to be diagnosed with anxiety and PTSD compared to men. Davis is using animal models to study an important molecule that could be involved in these sex differences.
