Monday 2 October, 12.30
With Dr Ashley Younger, Nuffield Department of Women's Reproductive Health
Join Ashley to explore her research into reproductive health. The focus of this talk will be on medical devices in women's health, using the vaginal speculum from the collection. We will discuss the history of the vaginal speculum and the importance of including the voices of women in the design and implementation of reproductive health technology.
Part of our Research Spotlights Series.
On the last Monday of the month join Pitt Rivers Museum researchers in the galleries for interactive talks bringing cutting-edge, cross-disciplinary research to life.
