My mother participated in this study. I collaborated with WHI to study obesity and aging on gut microbiome populations in postmenopausal women. This is a giant loss for science and women’s health.

Please call your Congressmen today to tell them that you support children's cancer research and not to cut Dept of Defense CDMRP funding for cancer research. Vote No on the job-killing, kid-killing Continuing Resolution (CR) tomorrow. Also breast cancer, prostate cancer, Parkinson’s research, etc.
