For anyone in life sciences who deals in regulatory information management and routinely engages with health authorities around the world, this webinar is focused on breaking down the hype around these innovations and sharing practical applications that can positively impact organizations.
The panelists will discuss the trends attendees have heard about while attending industry conferences and events over the past year and highlight the innovations with real staying power that will still be discussed a year from now.

Join experts from ArisGlobal, Robin Schilling, Associate Director, Regulatory Product Management; and Renato Rjavec, Senior Director of Product Management, for the live webinar on Monday, November 6, 2023, at 1pm EST (10am PST).

“There is a breakdown in the numbers of how Massachusetts maternal death rates are being reported,” said Ndidiamaka Amutah-Onukagha, PhD, MPH, Julia A. Okoro Professor of Black Maternal Health in the Department of Public Health and Community Medicine at Tufts University School of Medicine and founder of the Center for Black Maternal Health and Reproductive Justice. She continued, “We’re seeing much higher incidences of pregnancy-associated death; meaning a death during or within one year of pregnancy regardless of the cause. With this new research, imagine now the number of lives we can potentially save.”
Dr. Eugene Declercq, professor of community health sciences at Boston University School of Public Health said, “The problem of pregnancy-associated deaths isn’t just a lack of access to care, but also the inability to address the problems of high-risk individuals when they do have multiple contacts with the system. There is a clear need to expand the focus of maternal mortality to the much larger group of pregnancy-associated deaths to understand the risk factors and events that lead to many of these preventable deaths.”
The study was conducted as part of the NIH Research Project Grant R01MD016026 by Tufts University School of Medicine the Department of Public Health and Community Medicine; Boston University School of Public Health; the Massachusetts Department of Public Health; Evalogic Services, Inc.; and the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences, University of California, San Diego.
