    Big Data on Women’s Health

    With Liza Vityuk at McKinsey & Company. Discrimination based on gender and other connected factors like our race and ability impacts our health in so many ways. In honour of International Day of Action for Women's Health, we’ve focused on gender and health matters we may know bits and pieces of but probably need to learn more about. Our guest Liza Vityuk is Partner at McKinsey & Company. She has more than 15 years of experience in commercial and growth strategies, building digital businesses, and improving customer experience globally. Liza is the Chair of the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee in Canada, overseeing efforts for more than 1,300 colleagues. She joins us to speak to McKinsey Health Institute’s 2024 report, “Closing the women’s health gap: A $1 trillion opportunity to improve lives and economies”. It points to some big findings. While women live longer than men, they spend 25% more of their lives in debilitating health.    The study of biology defaults to the male body, which results in many treatments being less effective for women.   Women face more barriers to care, timely diagnosis, and good healthcare treatment.   And health burdens for women are systematically underestimated, with datasets that exclude or undervalue important conditions.   This is our last episode of Alright, Now What? for few months. We’re taking a summer break and will start up again in the fall with more great topics and guests. Thank you so much for your listenership and support.  Relevant Links: McKinsey Health Institute’s, “Closing the women’s health gap: A $1 trillion opportunity to improve lives and economies” report  Episode ⁠Transcripts⁠  Please listen, subscribe, rate, and review this podcast and share it with others.
