Abstract
In this presentation I will describe how the CGRP project started and culminated in the development of gepants and mAbs for successful therapy. The outstanding question regarding the preponderance of female migraineurs also remains. I will present views on the reason behind this and suggest that understanding the hormonal influence will pave the way to alleviating hormone related migraine.
