Menstruation Animation
About Us
We are a team of Harvard School of Public Health researchers and Museum of Science, Boston educators working together to curate, create, and convey information relevant to the underrepresented themes of sexual and reproductive health.
Our team collaborated with the Museum of Science, Boston at the Living Laboratory®, with the efforts led by Dr. Susan Heilman, to display the animation as an exhibit in the summer of 2022. During that time, 150 people watched the animation, and 50 families participated in a survey about their knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs about menstruation.
Thank you to all team members involved in this study, especially Anthony DeNitto for bringing the animation.
