🏆 Gaingels 100 spotlight: Lauren Foster – Changing the Game in Women’s Health From the hockey rink to the lab, Warren (Lauren) Foster, Ph.D., FCAHS has never shied away from a challenge. Her path—from athlete to scientist to founder—led her to launch Afynia Laboratories, a FemTech company tackling chronic pelvic pain, menstrual pain, and infertility caused by endometriosis. Lauren’s story is one of resilience, reinvention, and breaking barriers—not just in sports or academia, but in life. With the support of her children and students, she embraced her true self and is now driving innovation in #women’s health. 💡 Read more about Lauren’s journey here: https://lnkd.in/e4EQXV29 #Gaingels100 #WomensHealth #FemTech #Funding
