Women’s Reproductive Health Research (WRHR) Career Development Center
The Women's Reproductive Health Research (WRHR) Career Development Center at Stanford University, which is housed in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, provides advanced basic and clinical research training and career development in women's reproductive health research for obstetrician-gynecologists. The program accommodates trainees with varying levels of research experience and derives from a broad-based initiative with research, mentoring, and trainee evaluation as cornerstones of the program. The goal of the WRHR Career Development Center is to bridge the time period between clinical training with independent research careers and to foster the development of leaders in women's reproductive health research.
