Hello! My name is Claire Auslander and I'm a rising third-year at Georgetown University. I am studying nursing with the goal of earning my doctorate in midwifery/obstetrics & gynecology. I hope to dedicate my career to advancing reproductive freedom through healthcare delivery, research, and advocacy! 

This summer, I am researching the relationship between U.S. contraceptive policy and religiosity. More specifically, I'll be looking at state legislation relating to insurance coverage of contraceptives and the relationship, if any, between religious service attendance. My research builds upon my experience as a research assistant in health policy and maternal health and I'm thrilled to explore the intersection of my interests! 

A fun fact about me is that I'm from the San Francisco Bay Area but my family moved around a lot when I was younger, so I've lived all over the world!

Please don't hesitate to reach out, especially if it's to talk about policy/medical research or share your favorite music!
