Loved sharing my lab’s work on early detection of postpartum hemorrhage at SRI! Thanks to collaborators @leoshmu @FrolovaToni @ObrienlabWUSTL @WashUBME @WashU_OBGYN
Lucky to be advising these young innovators who are working to improve the lives of women living with Obstetric Fistula! Great work Savannah, Samantha, and Trinh! @WUSTLpubhealth @rice360glht #WomensHealth #globalhealth
Congrats to #WashUBME seniors Savannah Chatman, Samantha Olson & Trinh Woolridge on being selected as semi-finalists in this year’s Rice360 Global Health Technologies Design Competition! Their project aims to help women with obstetric fistulas perform everyday tasks.
Great work Francesca!
This week we want to highlight Francesca Bonetta-Misteli’s presentation at the SPIE Photonics West Conference! Francesca presented on the Early Detection of Postpartum Hemorrhage with a Wearable Optical Device, a collaboration with @leoshmu and @FrolovaToni funded by @NICHD_NIH
