The papers were chosen as the most outstanding student papers submitted for consideration. This year’s presentations touch on a variety of topics within MCH including social determinants of health, post partum depression, post-partum nutrition, verbal ability and physically aggressive behavior, and risk-taking behavior among South Africa youth. | |||
