The field of Obstetrics lags in the implementation of critical, innovative technologies. This problem is exacerbated by the absence of a dedicated network to study, disseminate, and champion safe and effective innovation to improve and modernize pregnancy care. This new forum will be dedicated to the current void of innovation within the obstetric field and highlight the emergence, development, and implementation of innovative solutions for our most pressing perinatal and postpartum problems.
