Electronic Journal Club
This journal club is a part of the education component of Women's Heart Health @ Stanford and serves to keep all of us informed and up to date on sex differences in cardiovascular disease.
Women's Heart Health @ Stanford includes health care providers and researchers from a broad spectrum of specialties, and likewise, I intend for our journal club articles to be equally diverse. The key feature of the articles is that they will address sex differences related to cardiovascular disease, but they can come from any discipline (ie, mental health, genetics, ob/gyn, heart failure, nutrition, etc.) Sex-specific articles will also be considered.
Starting in 2010, we are going to a new format. Articles will be listed with no analysis.
