Special Initiative: An Overview of the Gabby System

March 31, 2015 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Researchers at the Boston University School of Medicine, Boston Medical Center, and Northeastern University are conducting a study using, Gabby, an avatar, as a virtual preconception assessment, education, and behavior-change tool.

By the end of the webinar, participants will be able to:

  • Provide an overview on the history and clinical content of preconception care
