Trump to Sign Executive Order Creating NIH Women's Health Division and White House Task Force

On Monday, US President Donald Trump plans to sign an executive order to create a Women's Health Division at the National Institutes of Health, along with a White House Women's Health Task Force, as stated by the White House. First Lady Melania Trump will join him for the signing ceremony. Susie Wiles, the White House chief of staff who recently declared herself cancer-free, will co-lead the task force with US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., according to a White House official. The new NIH division will complement the existing Office of Research on Women's Health, broadening its focus beyond research.
