It’s #EqualResearchDay! 💥 Evvy created #EqualResearchDay on June 10 because women weren’t required in U.S. clinical research until June 10th, 1993 (Think Equal Pay Day but for the gender health gap!) To this day, there are countless holes ⚫ in our scientific and medical understanding of the female body — and that directly impacts us as patients. If you’ve ever experienced delays in diagnoses, failed treatments, mystery symptoms with no answers, or medical gaslighting — #EqualResearchDay is for you. This year, we brought together 46 innovative companies and compiled 100 Effed Facts about the Gender Health Gap across 12 health areas: ⚫ Autoimmune Disease ⚫ Brain + Mental Health ⚫ Cancer ⚫ Endometriosis ⚫ Fertility ⚫ Heart Health ⚫ Hormonal Health ⚫ Maternal Health ⚫ Medical Gaslighting ⚫ Menopause ⚫ Menstrual & Sexual Health ⚫ Vaginal & Urinary Health Earlier this week, we launched a limited-edition coffee table book featuring all 100 Effed Facts to benefit Women's Health Access Matters (you can order a copy at EqualResearchDay.com before they sell out... !) But we decided these facts are too important not to share widely — so we are posting a public version here on LinkedIn. 𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗖𝗔𝗡 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗣:  💥 Share this post (and add your story about why equal research matters to you)!  💥 Learn more and shop the limited edition coffee table book to benefit WHAM at EqualResearchDay.com The female body shouldn’t be a medical mystery — together, let’s close the gender health gap for good. #equalresearchday2024 #evvy #genderhealthgap #closethegenderhealthgap ——— 2024 Equal Research Day Collaborative: Evvy Aavia adyn Allara AOA Dx Bloomer Tech Caraway Clue Cofertility Conceive Diem DotLab Doveras Elektra Health Elix Frame Gabbi Gaia Gameto Health In Her HUE HerMD Hey Jane The Honey Pot Company Iron Health Julie Products Inc.

Introducing Cartwheel! Our new text-to-animation tool. I've animated my whole career, but the tools have barely changed. When I ran my own studio nearly every inbound client request had a budget 1/10th of what their vision would actually cost. And 3D animation is hard. 3D character animation ESPECIALLY. So, we're building a simple browser based tool to make animating easier — by quickly generating animations. And, the best part is they're editable. The goal is to empower creative folks, from novices to full blown professional animators. Our system is still pretty early, but can generate lots of cool motions for you. Put them in your videos, games, movies, ads, VR apps — or, because it's so easy you can use them in your presentations, websites, or even chats. Export them to use in any 3D program, put the motion on to different characters, make videos, use them in tandem with other AI tools, or just play around. It's kind of like directing an actor. We're a team of animators and engineers from the creative industry. My co-founder Andrew Carr, myself, and the rest of our team have been working really hard on Cartwheel and we're excited to finally start talking about it! This project is a labor of love - we're excited to start rolling out out private beta and get your feedback. Much more to come soon — and sign up for the Beta! getcartwheel.com Cartwheel Shout outs!
