Show Notes

In this new episode of 'Narratives of Purpose', Ann-Marie de Lange joins host Claire Murigande to discuss the critical and often overlooked area of women's brain health research. Ann-Marie shares insights from her work as Principal Investigator at FemiLab, which studies factors affecting women's brain health using large-scale population data.

With a background as a clinical psychologist and a focus on neuroimaging, Ann-Marie emphasises the importance of understanding how various life transitions, such as pregnancy and menopause, impact women's brain health.

Throughout the conversation, both Ann-Marie and Claire explore the historical neglect of women's health in research and the implications of this gap on clinical practices today. The discussion highlights the need for more inclusive research, the power of community engagement, and the positive momentum building around women's health issues.
