This work is based on a previous semester project witch explores how the lack of female representation in research and clinical trials has led to disproportionate adverse drug reactions in women. These effects are the result of healthcare systems historically designed around male bodies, often treating them as the default in diagnostics, treatment, and pharmaceutical development, showing that care systems are taking better care of male bodies then of any others.The unequal treatment gets visible through gaps, most common known as the gender data gap.
