Monica Saucedo

Project manager

My work focuses on severe maternal morbidity (SMM), on assessing the determinants of SMM related to 1) care provision and organization, and 2) the interaction between the care system and subgroups of higher risk women in order to address health inequalities. I also work in projects to develop maternal health indicators using large dataset from French health Insurance (SNDS).
