Amplify Nursing Season 10: Episode 01: Caitlin "Cat" Russell (Clason)

Today on Amplify Nursing we talk with Dr. Cat Russell, a U.S. Army veteran, nurse and current postdoctoral fellow with the National Clinician Scholars Program at the University of Pennsylvania researching perinatal and reproductive health and health care access for U.S. active-duty servicewomen and veterans.  

In this episode we discuss Cat’s journey from serving in the Army, working in a fast paced emergency department, to then researching gaps in reproductive healthcare for servicewomen. With Dr. Holly Harner, Cat is developing a secure & anonymous online resource to educate servicewomen on reproductive health resources. Their project, Camo Care, supported by Penn Nursing’s Innovation Accelerator, is set to launch soon. They aim to navigate evolving policies and ensure military women have the knowledge and access they need.
