Engineering for Women’s Health (Eng4WH)

Engineering for Women’s Health (Eng4WH) is a multi-campus affinity group started by graduate students from Boston University, Northeastern University, and Tufts University with the goal of promoting technology that can impact women’s lives. Eng4WH aims to cultivate interdisciplinary dialogues and foster collaborations to advance women’s health. We strive to provide a platform for such conversations, and ultimately lay the groundwork for equitable, high-impact partnerships, research, and advocacy to serve the community at large. Our 2025 conference will take place at BU on January 31, 2025.
