Dec. 6 – Assistant professor co-authors study on gender in family planning
Assistant Professor Miles Harris co-authored the study, “Society of Family Planning Research Practice Support: Approaching the concepts of gender and sex in family planning research,” which was published in the reproductive health journal Contraception. The authors contend that limited or narrow views of gender and sex have excluded transgender, gender-diverse and intersex people from studies on contraception, pregnancy and abortion, leaving gaps in our understanding of these important experiences. They support the measurement of both gender and sex in family planning research, especially when studying access, fairness or inequalities. Contraception is the official journal of the Society of Family Planning.
