Great article in NYT about a bioengineer with endometriosis & future of research

[Rhyothemis]

Article relates Dr Linda Griffith's struggles with endometriosis and her effort to get more scientific research on the condition, which could lead to better better treatments and change our understanding of important biological processes such as stem cell migration.

Morning lovely,

Thanks so much for sharing this.

Very good stuff to read. It's encouraging that a project like this is taking root & growing... There is hope.

I doubt we'll see much progress, or even recognition by general gynaecologists & GPs in our generation but things are gradually moving in the right direction & I'm optimistic for future generations of endo sufferers. Great steps in the USA, #CatchUpUKEndoResearch 😆

It is crazy that endo was first named & shamed in 1940s & still, pretty much, has the same understanding in 2021.

If ever there is an opportunity to be involved in research, here in England, I'm there!
