Wallace Center for Maternal, Child, and Adolescent Health

The Wallace Center will host Euki App co-founder Ana Maria Ramirez for an upcoming Voices in Femtech talk on Thursday, April 23, 2026.

The conversation will explore reproductive health, data privacy, and innovation in femtech, with a focus on how public health values can be embedded into digital tools. Euki, a privacy-focused period tracking app originally developed as part of a public health research project, reflects a growing movement to center equity, accessibility, and user data protection in reproductive health technology.

The Wallace Center recently hosted author Andrea Ford for a conversation on her book Near Birth: Contested Values and the Work of Doulas.

The discussion explored how different models of care shape the experience of pregnancy and birth, and highlighted the role of doulas in navigating medical systems while supporting patient autonomy. Drawing from her research, Ford examined the cultural, clinical, and structural factors that influence how birth is understood and practiced.
