Why We Should Experiment On Pregnant Women


Experimenting on humans can be a dangerous and scary endeavor, but we’ve created guidelines to make sure that our clinical trials are the safest they can be. However, all of this effort is lost when it comes to pregnant women. We have very little data on how some of the most-used medications affect this population simply because it’s not researched. Our guest explains why we need to start including this population in clinical trials and how it can be done safely and effectively.
