From HER, For HER — Student Publications Program is a student-led publication initiative focused on women’s health. Students explore conditions, inequities, and disparities that genuinely interest them and deepen their understanding by connecting research to real-world impact. Through well-researched, thoughtfully written articles, contributors examine not only the science behind women’s health issues, but also the social and community contexts in which they exist. The program offers a structured platform for young women to educate others, amplify underrepresented perspectives, and engage in meaningful academic inquiry beyond the classroom.

Students interested in publishing through From HER, For HER begin by selecting a women’s health condition or disparity they are genuinely curious about. This could include a specific condition (e.g., endometriosis, osteoporosis, polycystic ovary syndrome), a health disparity affecting certain communities (e.g., access to maternal healthcare, cardiovascular outcomes among women, mental health inequities), or another area of women’s health that interests you.
