Moms, Minds & Medicine (M3): Inside Maternal Health Research
The Maternal Health Research Coordinating Center (MHRCC) recognizes maternal mortality as a pressing issue affecting women. While many are aware of the maternal mortality crisis, there is a critical knowledge gap regarding the stages of pregnancy and the importance of identifying and mitigating risks throughout the pregnancy process. The Maternal Health Research Collaborative (MHRC) Podcast – Moms, Minds & Medicine (M3): Inside Maternal Health Research – seeks to fill this gap by providing an engaging, accessible platform to educate, inform, and empower listeners with valuable insights into maternal health from a clinical perspective.
Through expert interviews, real-life stories, and evidence-based discussions, the podcast will serve as a resource for researchers, healthcare professionals, and the broader community. It will highlight best practices, policy considerations, and practical solutions for improving maternal health outcomes. The overall goal is to bridge the information divide, promote awareness, and drive action in maternal health.
