Various regions need more trained abortion and reproductive healthcare providers. Abortion bans create fewer providers and more barriers for pregnant patients in the future. We're here to assist medical students with abortion advocacy and curriculum reform on campus. 📷: shotbybindra

This #TelehealthAwarenessWeek, Ibis researchers have launched a blog series diving into the history of telemedicine, exploring the impact of #VirtualCare, and demonstrating how #IbisDrivesChange by contextualizing study findings. One key takeaway: #TelehealthWorks ⬇️

"Reports from organizations like Guttmacher and the Society of Family Planning’s #WeCount project indicate that abortion has persisted—and even increased—in banned states since Dobbs. That’s in large part thanks to abortion medication, telehealth, and shield laws." - @jessicavalenti.bsky.social

"This year, the Society published updated guidelines in the journal Contraception, emphasiz(ing) the importance of providing person-centered recommendations and shared decision-making."

"I have always worked with the idea that I can help an individual patient and I can also help countless others with important research so we can all provide better care," Creinin said. Mitchell Creinin, MD is this year's recipient of the Society of Family Planning Lifetime Achievement Award.
