This Call for Submissions invites Expressions of Interest for a Special Collection of Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine, focusing on LGBT+ health equity and innovation.

These inequities result in significantly worse physical and mental health outcomes and limit access to inclusive, culturally competent care.
This Special Collection will offer researchers and clinicians an opportunity to publish original research, meta-analyses, and review articles that address these disparities and propose inclusive, personalized, and innovative solutions to improve health outcomes for LGBT+ populations.
This Call welcomes submissions on (but not limited to):
* Mental Health & Well-being
* Sexual & Reproductive Health
* Transgender & Gender-Diverse Health
* Equity in Healthcare Access
* Social Determinants of Health
* Stigma & Healthcare Avoidance
* Community & Public Health Initiatives
