ABOUT US

Mō Mātau

We are a network of New Zealand based researchers focussed on understanding the chronic health condition polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

We are specifically interested in understanding how androgen excess impacts a woman’s physiology over her lifespan. In line with our vision, our discovery research is identifying valuable new knowledge about how PCOS develops and how it can be reversed.

In addition, we recognise the need for reliable, evidence-based information sharing between researchers, health professionals, patients and their whānau (family) and hope that we can provide links and resources that promote this communication.

Our vision is to:

  • Create new knowledge about the impact of androgen excess in women

  • Shift the focus of the biomedical and clinical understanding of PCOS pathophysiology and treatment toward the brain

  • Identify better ways to prevent, treat and ultimately cure PCOS

  • Provide reliable, evidence-based resources to researchers, health professionals, patients and their whānau (family)
