Frontiers in Global Women's Health

Aims & Scope

Frontiers in Global Women’s Health incorporates research from all disciplines related to the health problems facing women around the world, especially those living in low to middle income countries.

Traditionally, research on the health issues facing women has tended to focus on maternal, sexual, and reproductive health, as well as specific diseases such as breast cancer.

However, the conditions that now kill most women around the world are coronary heart disease and stroke; their etiology is influenced by a wide range of events and exposures earlier in life that are poorly understood.

If care is to be improved, a life course approach is required, taking into account stressors as varied as climate change, infectious diseases, poverty, domestic violence, and discrimination on the basis of gender.

Frontiers in Global Women’s Health is led by Field Chief Editor Prof Stephen Kennedy (Oxford University, UK).

Subjects of interest include, but are not limited to: • aging in women • contraception and family planning • infectious diseases in women • maternal health • quality of life • sex and gender differences in disease • women's mental health.
