Azad Lab and colleagues host outreach initiative for National Breastfeeding Awareness Week

Members from the Manitoba Interdisciplinary Lactation Centre (MILC) hosted an outreach table in a high-traffic area of the medical school to raise awareness and support for breastfeeding, including information-sharing, lots of conversation, and stickers, as well as displays of life-size posters of breastfeeding mothers from the Winnipeg Breastfeeding Network, and medieval and religious paintings depicting breastfeeding provided by visiting scholar François-Joseph Lapointe. There was a lot of enthusiastic engagement, particularly from first- and second-year medical students! Thanks to everyone who helped to make this event such a success!
