Omaha is home to four sex researchers, sometimes called sexologists, who form the Omaha-based Midlands Sexual Health Research Collaborative (MSHRC). The team has broad expertise in men’s and women’s sexual health, sexual literacy, lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender populations, HIV and STDs.
Attendees met these “sexperts” at the December 3, 2013, Omaha Science Café, at 7 p.m. at the Slowdown, 729 N. 14th St. to learn more about their research, ask questions about sex and get answers based on science.
Presenters included: Christopher Fisher, Ph.D., director of the MSHRC; Sofia Jawed-Wessel, Ph.D., assistant director; and associate directors Jay Irwin, Ph.D., and Jason Coleman, Ph.D. For more information about the Midlands Sexual Health Research Collaborative visit the website at: http://www.unmc.edu/publichealth/mshrc
This was the first in a four-part series that will be held over the next year at various dates dealing with different sexual health topics. |
