Research Clusters

Gender and Health

This research cluster is intended to promote interdisciplinary research on issues of women's health research, in its many manifestations, and relationships between gender and health. The cluster will promote research being undertaken by UT Austin faculty from different disciplines including but not limited to history, social work, nursing and medicine. Research methods include qualitative and quantitative approaches. In addition, the cluster emphasizes collaboration between communities within and outside of the university, such as the Waggoner Center, Toxicology Training Center, the Institute for Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault, and Community Health Promotion Research, SafePlace, Planned Parenthood, and Jane's Due Process.
