My perspective in The Transmitter on the role of AI and neuroimaging in advancing women’s brain health. “To put it bluntly, we need to recruit more AI researchers to be interested in women’s brain health, and we need to make women’s brain health researchers more fluent in AI.” tinyurl.com/4mvytsdu

Large-scale neuroimaging datasets often lack information specific to women’s health, constraining AI’s analysis potential

Addressing this gap will require collecting widespread data on pregnancy, menopause and other life events women experience—and could bring us closer to the “holy grail” of linking brain and behavior.
