Symposium: Gender, sex, and reproduction – perspectives from different disciplines
This mini-symposium brings together diverse perspectives on gender diversity,
gender dysphoria, intersex conditions, and female reproduction.
We will examine biological, medical, and sociocultural dimensions, addressing both clinical challenges and broader societal implications. Through interdisciplinary discussions, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of these complex issues and their impact on individuals and communities, involving attendees from various scientific disciplines.
