Most medical research in non-human animals is conducted only in males.  New guidelines aim to change this.

Historically, sex, gender, variations of sex characteristics and sexual orientation have had limited consideration in health and medical research – resulting in disparities in data and therefore treatments.

Guest: Bronwyn Graham is a Professor of Psychology at George Institute for Global Health

Presenter: Warren Andrew
