About the Speaker:
Lorie Harper, MD, MSCI, is an associate professor of the Department of Women’s Health, and Division Chief of the Maternal-Fetal Medicine fellowship program. She is a nationally recognized scientific researcher, focusing on the clinical management of obesity in pregnancy, including reducing the risk of surgical-site infections after cesarean sections in women who are obese. She also has a significant interest in gestational diabetes and pregestational diabetes in pregnancy, complications frequently seen in obesity. More recently, given the ongoing opioid epidemic in the country, Harper has expanded her research to include the management of substance use disorders in pregnancy.
