Research And Publications
At HelpMum, we are dedicated to improving maternal and infant healthcare. As part of our
commitment to this mission, we engage in ongoing research and publication efforts to gain a
holistic view of our work and to continuously improve upon it.
Through our research initiatives, we aim to deepen our understanding of the unique challenges
facing mothers and infants, as well as identify innovative solutions to address these issues. Our findings are disseminated through various publications, including peer-reviewed journals and
conference proceedings, to ensure that our insights are shared with other healthcare professionals and stakeholders.
By leveraging the latest research and technology, we are constantly pushing the boundaries of
what is possible in the field of maternal and infant healthcare. We believe that our ongoing
commitment to research and publication is essential in our quest to improve the lives of mothers
and infants, both locally and globally.
Our Research Works
ADVISER: AI-Driven Vaccination Intervention Optimiser for Increasing Vaccine Uptake in Nigeria
HelpMum collaborated with Google Research and Vanderbilt University to develop ADVISER, an AI-driven innovation aimed at increasing vaccination uptake in Nigeria.
