Purpose
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is often thought of as a disease of men. Yet, CHD is the number one cause of death for women 65 years and older, is ranked second for women aged 45-65 years, and is the third leading cause of death in women aged 25-44 years (NCHS, 2007).This conference will provide a forum for researchers and clinicians to share scholarly inquiry, research findings, and creative interventions related to women and heart disease.
The goals of the conference are to:
1. Explore the state of the science regarding women and
heart disease
2. Identify gaps of knowledge in research pertaining to
women and heart disease
3. Provide a forum by which scholars can discuss issues
surrounding women and heart disease
4. Develop creative collaboration among scholars in the
CHD arena.
