Helping Babies Survive, along with our implementing partners, continually strives to evaluate and communicate the impact of our programs – at conferences, meetings, and through peer-reviewed publications.
Help us measure our progress! We are proud to highlight and share the results of HBS-related research studies being conducted worldwide. Please contact us if you would like to submit a scientific publication for inclusion on the website.
