Jennifer Connor, PhD, LMFT, presents: An Examination in Women's Health Across Cultures
Update: 2015-12-02
Description
The focus of this research presentation is to provide information regarding the evolution of my research program from the study of vulvar vestibulitis syndrome (now provoked vestibuldynia) in predominantly white American and European couples to the study of sexual pain in Somali female refugees living in the United States. In addition, I will touch briefly on a current project with UMN and University of California investigators in regards to reproductive medicine. Finally, I will present future directions in NIH funding, potential for interdisciplinary collaboration, and clinical application of the sexual pain research.
