Every May, the Women’s Health Luncheon highlights the work being done across Mass General Brigham (MGB) to protect and promote the health of women around the world. In addition to featuring a nationally recognized keynote speaker, the luncheon will highlight discoveries and advances from our world-renowned, Harvard-affiliated physicians focused on women’s care and research at the Mary Horrigan Connors Center for Women’s Health Research, the Division of Women’s Health, and across our health system.

Our next luncheon will be held on Friday, May 8, at the Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport and will present a panel of women’s health experts from Mass General Brigham sharing the latest advancements in heart health. This inspiring event will feature keynote speaker Doris Kearns Goodwin, presidential historian and Pulitzer Prize-winning author.


2025 Highlights

More than 600 donors and champions of women’s health gathered last May for the annual Women’s Health Luncheon, which highlighted work across Mass General Brigham to improve health for women, with a specific focus on cancer care. The event attracted its largest crowd yet in 2025, raising a record-breaking $1.4 million to support our women’s health research programs.

Guests enjoyed a luncheon featuring a keynote conversation between Arianna Huffington, founder and CEO of Thrive Global, founder of The Huffington Post, and a bestselling author, and journalist Lisa Hughes of WBZ-TV News. Huffington emphasized how consistent, daily habits and artificial intelligence (AI) can empower women to live healthier lives.

“My passion is to elevate behaviors essential for health and to defeat chronic diseases,” Huffington said. “It’s time to take more agency of our health, and AI can help us.”
