Magee-Womens Research Institute & Foundation

At Magee-Womens Research Institute, our scientists wake up every morning with a shared goal: to improve the quality of life for women and infants here in Pittsburgh and around the world. We believe that by focusing on women’s health, we can improve the health of families, communities and entire populations - here in Pittsburgh and around the world.

We believe in solving real-world problems and improving lives today, and for generations to come. We are dedicated to leveraging our collective knowledge and expertise to spark innovation and push health care forward. We are embracing the next generation of scientists and their tenacity, creativity, fire and focus. We value openness and collaboration, sharing our research for others to learn from and build upon.

We see a better, healthier world in which women’s health has the scientific prominence and cultural status it deserves.

"Gender differences drive a lot of scientific differences that can have major health implications for the treatment and prevention of disease. Progress has been dramatic and we want that momentum to continue. The more research you do, the more you learn."
