MHTF-PLOS Collection on Maternal Health
In order to increase global access to comprehensive information on maternal health, the Maternal Health Task Force (MHTF) collaborates with the Public Library of Science (PLOS) to curate freely available, open access collections of research on maternal health. Through this partnership, the MHTF aims to highlight in particular the work of maternal health researchers in low-resource settings.
