AboutAbout the lab
Supporting people who are becoming parents through nursing.
The Reproductive Health Nursing Lab studies health problems affecting women, mothers, and children from the perspective of nursing science.
In addition to maternal nursing, it is a field of nursing that focuses on health promotion, including reproduction, sexuality, and becoming a father.
The lab explores ways to address issues linked to social problems such as the declining birthrate and childbirth at older ages.
All faculty members are nurses and midwives, and in the undergraduate program they also teach maternal nursing and midwifery education.
