Congratulations to WHRI member Dr. Cheryl Wellington, who recently received a Brain Canada 2025 Platform Support Grant to facilitate her leadership of the UBC Core Facility for Neurology Biomarker Innovation (CFNBI).

The WHRI is collaborating with the Clinical Research Support Unit at BC Children’s Hospital Research Institute to evaluate a process that combines AI translation with structured human review for research documents – and you can help.

This May, the Women’s Health Research Institute (WHRI) formalized our commitment to Trauma and Resiliency-informed Practices (TRiP) with a new offering: TRiP Training for Researchers and Evaluators. This work was facilitated by long-time WHRI partner BC Pomeroy and WHRI Qualitative Research Analyst Julia Santana Parrilla.

The 11th annual Women’s Health Research Symposium highlighted two decades of progress in women’s health research and served as an excellent kickoff to Women’s Health Research Month.

WHRI’s Qualitative Research Analyst, Julia Santana Parrilla, and Heather McCain—member of the Beyond the Binary Community Task Force and Founder & Executive Director of Live Educate Transform Society (LET’S)—were recently featured on Leader Talks, where they reflect on their work with BTB and the importance of centering diverse gender experiences in research.
