Professor Elizabeth R. Kukura

Leading the charge for inclusive healthcare, Professor Elizabeth R. Kukura has made a notable impact with her article, “Reconceiving Reproductive Health Systems: Caring for Trans, Nonbinary, and Gender-Expansive People During Pregnancy and Childbirth,” which was cited by Merriam-Webster in its online definition of “gender dysphoria.” Kukura’s work invites a fresh rethinking of reproductive health practices to serve diverse gender identities better.
