MARINA GERNER

The Vagina Business

Thursday, January 30 | 7:30 PM | Rice University | Kraft Hall, Room 130

Presented in collaboration with Rice’s Center for the Study of Women, Gender, and Sexuality and Rice’s Department of Sociology

Award winning journalist and adjunct professor at NYU, Marina Gerner takes an in-depth and sometimes shocking look at the inequities found in the funding of female-focused health companies and scientific research. From periods and childbirth to menopause and heart health, Gerner reveals that female pain has been normalized and unexplored. Gerner’s work has been widely published in The Economist’s 1843, The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, Financial Times and Wired and exposes the many obstacles entrepreneurs face when it comes to innovating for women’s health – even today.
