These 3 brilliant researchers are being recognized as #WomensImpactAward winners!
👏 Angela Goncalvez | Tackling reproductive aging
👏 Colette Wabnitz | Championing women in fisheries
👏 Omneya Attallah | Affordable AI for breast cancer detection

We're proud to support science breakthroughs worldwide!
Women's Impact Award Winners Omneya Attallah - BrAID: Early Detection of Breast Cancer in Resource-Limited Settings via Novel Cost-Effective Non-invasive Biomarkers and Artificial Intelligence Breast cancer diagnostics face limitations—radiation exposure, invasiveness, and high costs. This project creates BrAID, a portable and painless AI-powered tool that detects cancer biomarkers noninvasively and affordably, giving women in underserved regions access to life-saving early diagnosis Colette Wabnitz - Gender equity in fisheries Millions of women sustain global fisheries yet remain overlooked in data and decisions. This project co-creates fact sheets, gender policy analyses, and regional workshops to elevate women’s voices, support leadership, and advance just, inclusive, and sustainable ocean governance. Angela Goncalvez - How the biological clock ticks in the female reproductive tract: the influence of reproductive cycling on aging and disease Endometriosis, ovarian cancer, menopause — still under-researched and often misdiagnosed. This project combines AI, molecular biology, and clinical insight to develop non-invasive tools for early detection, personalized care, and healthier aging — directly challenging gender bias in medicine.
