Welcome to Repro Questions ANSIRH'ed: The Latest on Abortion and Reproductive Science. My name is Natalie Siyar, and I'm part of an organization called Advancing New Standards in Reproductive Health, otherwise known as ANSIRH.

We are a group of faculty and staff at the University of California, San Francisco, in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences who are dedicated to sexual and reproductive health policy research. This means we study the impacts of laws and regulations affecting pregnancy, contraception, abortion, and more.

We are so excited about our work that we wanted to share it with the world by launching this podcast series where I sit down with researchers to discover how reproductive research can drive policy change.
