EndoRISE

A community to advance Endometriosis Research, Innovation, Support & Education

EndoRISE is a groundbreaking, state supported initiative to address Endometriosis, a highly invasive, under-diagnosed and under-researched disease.

Seeking to improve awareness and health outcomes in Connecticut, while driving research breakthroughs that will impact women across the nation and beyond, the EndoRISE program's multifaceted approach includes:

The creation of the CT Data and Biorepository, a diverse data and specimen biorepository to enable research, clinical and industry collaborations
The education of healthcare providers, students and frontline professionals about endometriosis diagnosis and best practices
Serving as a centralized resource, to disseminate information and raise public awareness about the disease

Whether a patient, researcher, provider, or simply interested in learning more, we welcome you to join us in the effort to impact the lives of the over 200 million people suffering from this disease.
