Specialized Centers of Research on Sex and Gender Factors Affecting Women's Health (SCORs)

The Office of Research on Women's Health (ORWH) serves as a focal point to promote, stimulate, and support efforts to improve the health of women through biomedical and behavioral research at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). ORWH works in partnership with the NIH institutes and centers, and other federal agencies to ensure that women's health research is part of the scientific framework at NIH and throughout the scientific community.

Through this partnership, the ORWH recently established eleven SCORs to promote institutional interdisciplinary research in an area important to women's health.

The specialized centers are co-funded by the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), the National Institutes on Drug Abuse (NIDA), the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The NIAMS provides administrative oversight for the centers.
