Explore a paradigm-shifting conference talk that delves into the emerging field of sex- and gender-sensitive medicine. Discover how the traditional assumption of identical male and female bodies has led to misdiagnoses and unnecessary deaths. Learn about the crucial differences between sexes, the existence of more than two biological sexes, and the impact of gender on medical treatment. Gain insights into specific cases such as osteoporosis, depression, and heart attacks, where gender bias has affected patient care. Examine the four core genotype mouse model and its implications for understanding sex differences. Investigate the roles of gender identity and expression in healthcare outcomes. Explore the potential of computer-assisted diagnostics in addressing these biases. This 54-minute presentation by Sarah Hiltner challenges conventional medical thinking and introduces a more nuanced approach to patient care that considers both biological sex and gender identity.
