To help bring sex contextualist frameworks into the laboratory, we wrote this condensed, portable, 1-page document that answers common questions about sex contextualist approaches in experimental design, execution, and reporting.

Recently lab director Sarah Richardson published a paper proposing sex contextualism as a new model for conceptualizing and operationalizing sex in biomedical research. We take a moment to unpack sex contextualism with Sarah, digging into both the substance and the implications of her argument.

GSL made a teaching slidedeck that walks through the central ideas of Richardson’s paper “Sex Contextualism,” with the aim of equipping students with critical tools for understanding sex contextualism as a conceptual and practical framework and why it matters.
