The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services awarded the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences a $2.4 million grant to help combat maternal and infant deaths in Arkansas, specifically in the Delta region.
Stefanie Kennon-McGill, senior program manager for BioVentures, a healthcare and technology office that is a part of UAMS, spoke with Ozarks At Large's Matthew Moore. Kennon-McGill said the purpose of this grant is to find innovative and sustainable solutions to a massive problem in Arkansas: maternal health.
