Join us in honoring
Equal Research Day
on June 10th
Female bodies were not required to be in U.S. clinical research until June 10, 1993.
So let's make June 10 a day to promote inclusive research, tell our stories, and raise awareness for the gender health gap.

Male bodies have always been the default, from office air conditioning to crash test dummies.
But nowhere is that default more dangerous than in medical research.
To this day, women are still diagnosed on average 4 years later than men across hundreds of diseases. We’re more likely to die from heart attacks, react poorly to prescription drugs, and have our pain and symptoms dismissed by doctors.
Why? Because women and people with vaginas were not required to be included clinical research until June 10th, 1993 – decades after many of the foundational studies on which most modern medicine is based.
And without equal research, there can never be equal care.
Join Evvy in recognizing June 10th as Equal Research Day. A day to promote inclusive research, tell our stories, and start to dismantle this default.
Because the female body shouldn’t be a medical mystery.
Together, let’s build a world where female health is finally understood, where medical bias has no place, and where everyone — doctors, educators, lawmakers, researchers, and patients — work together to close the gender health gap for good.
