US President Donald Trump is expected to sign an executive order on Monday creating a new division at the National Institutes of Health and a task force focused on women's health. The initiative, announced by a White House official, aims to broaden the scope beyond research and will be led by White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles and Health Secretary Robert Kennedy. Melania Trump is slated to speak at the event, emphasizing the role of artificial intelligence in accelerating women's health discoveries and addressing care access and affordability. This move follows previous actions by the administration to cut healthcare spending and reduce the federal healthcare workforce. The administration has also faced criticism for its review of the abortion pill mifepristone and for targeting family planning funds.
