Panko publishes research in ‘Obstetrics and Gynecology’
Tiffany Panko, director of the Deaf Health Lab in the Center on Culture and Language at NTID, published “Reproductive Justice for the Deaf Community” in the October 2022 issue of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Her current commentary presents the research to show the inequalities deaf women face compared with hearing women and to show the relationship between unplanned pregnancy, its negative effects, and reproductive injustice for deaf women, as well as strategies public health researchers and health care professionals can adopt to ensure reproductive justice for deaf women.
