The work of reproductive health researcher and demographer Diana Greene Foster has never been more timely as ongoing fallout from the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade continues to impact women’s health throughout the U.S. As the 2024 election approaches, with abortion access a central theme, Foster — who won a 2023 MacArthur grant for research that has included a landmark study exploring the long-term effects of being denied abortions — is sure to be a sought-after source of both qualitative and quantitative data.
