Community Education
One of our primary goals is to make scientifically-sound information accessible to the public, translating sexual and gender health science for the masses. We believe our scientific findings should not be held captive behind an academic paywall. Our faculty strive to do this through engagement with the community, providing expert commentary to media outlets, or writing for open access.
