With the position of First Lady on her resume’, it was only a matter of time before Jill Biden snagged a new job. 

And that is just what she’s done, Fox News reported.

“From endometriosis to healthy aging, the White House Initiative on Women’s Health Research made important investments in research and development, while making clear it will take collaboration across industries to bring these innovations to scale,” Biden said, according to a press release from Milken Institute. “I am honored to join the Milken Institute as we unite leaders around a shared mission: for women everywhere to benefit from the lifesaving, world-changing research we know is possible.”

Biden will be the chairwoman of the think tank’s new Women’s Health Network. 

Biden holds a doctorate in education and focused on the Biden Cancer Moonshot plan to end cancer, the Joining Forces initiative to support veteran families and caregivers, and launching the White House Initiative on Women’s Health Research when she was First Lady.

In her new role, Biden will focus on “galvanizing participation, collaboration, and shared action in the Women’s Health Network to improve women’s health and wellbeing,” according to the think tank’s press release. 

Former President Joe Biden launched the White House Initiative on Women’s Health Research, which Jill Biden led.

At that time, the Biden White House said, “TOO MANY medical studies have focused on men and left women out” and too many of “the medicine dosages, treatments, medical school text books, are based on men and their bodies – and that information doesn’t always apply to women.”

“So one of the things we did was we got to work right away,” Jill Biden said during a Milken Institute conference Monday. “Joe said, ‘You know, let’s infuse – really, the federal government with money.’ In one year, we put in $1 billion to advance women’s research.” 

“And we worked a lot through the (National Institutes of Health) and the way that they did research, and we made sure that they disaggregated the data and that they separated the research on women and men differently, and we worked with (the Department of Defense) DOD – they put a lot of money into women’s research – and then we put a lot of money in to de-risk the investment,” she said. “So there were a lot of things that, really, private equity wasn’t willing to take on because it was too risky, and we thought, let’s push this forward, and let’s try to find answers more quickly.”

We launched our Women’s Health Network to serve as a global collaborative to elevate + advance existing and new efforts across the women’s health ecosystem. Dr. Jill Biden, US former First Lady, has joined our new Women’s Health Network as Chair. https://t.co/71BiNkM7OS pic.twitter.com/LEMnjZc0Dl
