title: [Medicine has much to learn from gender studies].
abstract: The issues raised in this article and illustrated with examples from gender research indicate new directions for public health, taking multidisciplinary gender scholarship into account. The changing potential of a gendered public health can be summarized in the following issues: new research questions and research areas, making differences within the group of women/men visible, introducing power analyses, developing theoretical frameworks as well as problematizing masculinities. Medicine has much to learn from gender research, especially in relation to reflexive approaches as well as current epistemology.
