Brief Debate In Physician's Weekly: Is Medical Research Shortchanging Men?

Marc Angelucci writes "Jean Bonhomme of the Black Men's Health Network briefly debates Phyllis Greenberger of the Society for Women’s Health Research in this point/counterpoint in the Physician's Weekly. It's pretty clear to me who won. Bonhomme gives far more accurate facts, Greenberger repeats the already-debunked myth that women were exluded from medical testing, and Greenberger changes the issue to be whether the female-specific research indirectly benefits men rather than whether the research overall is shortganging men by underaddressing men's health in favor of women's health."Source: Physician's Weekly [magazine]
