Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has long been viewed as a predominantly male condition, but this is a myth. Most women —and even many health professionals— remain unaware of the true burden of CVD in women. Why? The reasons are complex and range from public health messaging to decades of biomedical research built primarily on male animal models and male-dominated clinical trials.
But what are the consequences of this paradigm? Do biological differences (sex) and sociocultural factors (gender) influence cardiovascular risk, prevention, diagnosis, or outcomes? Do women receive the same care as men — or is there evidence of inequality, even discrimination? And how does mental health intersect with cardiovascular health in women?
In his talk, Dr. Bueno will explore the intricate relationship between sex, gender, and cardiovascular health. He will discuss data gaps, systemic biases, and what these mean for both clinical care and future research — including the role of computing and AI in closing these gaps.
Speaker: Héctor Bueno. Cardiology Department of Hospital Universitario 12 de Octubre, Madrid. Researcher at the Spanish National Cardiovascular Research Center (CNIC).
