Bettsy Betts

Bett's presentation was really helpful. At first I was searching without checking the "full text" box and could not access many of the articles and academic journals I needed. She pointed out specific data basis that will be helpful to me in the future, as my topic is more of a social topic rather than sustainable.

I have narrowed my topic to maternal health. I think I will start broad, addressing the issue on a global scale and then bringing it back to the United States as I go. I am excited to really dive into my research.
