Hi Reddit!

My most recent study (http://ift.tt/1tyS9wW) found that women, in particular, have higher rates of cancer, diabetes, heart disease and arthritis when they work long hours for many years. I think that life demands outside of work could contribute and help explain why we found these life-threatening problems for women but not for men. (More information about my work is available at: http://ift.tt/29olguy)

I will be back at 1 pm ET (10 am PT) to answer your questions, ask me anything!
