Ageing French style - Metascience

My review of "The French Invention of Menopause and the Medicalisation of Women's Ageing" is now published. This book is a deeply researched monograph that explores the medical and cultural construction of menopause during the long 19th century. It was a fascinating read!

History Shows the Uselessness of Exemptions to Abortion Bans Contrary to claims by anti-abortion activists, history shows that abortion bans hinder women's health.

I co-authored an essay for Time Magazine on how exemptions to abortion bans don't work. They make life more difficult for the mothers, families, and physicians. And what is happening now in the U.S. has happened before.
