Description

Reproductive health concerns the individual in components as miniscule as neurons, and entities as expansive as families and societies across the world. We must proceed with care and consideration on all scales, towards ourselves, others, and our community as a whole in order to live well.

This painting couldn’t have been made without the guidance of Dr. Caitlin Taylor. Caitlin has a Ph.D. in Neuroscience and is a postdoctoral fellow in the Jacobs Lab. Caitlin uses MRI to investigate the effects of oral contraceptive use on the brain, as well to study the effects of sex hormones on the hippocampus. Caitlin shares her love of science through education and outreach.
