Who is Charlotte Ellertson?

This fellowship is named in memory of Charlotte Ellertson, the driving force behind its establishment and the founder of Ibis Reproductive Health. We chose the fellowship name—the Charlotte Ellertson Social Science Postdoctoral Fellowship in Abortion and Reproductive Health—to honor Charlotte’s commitment to rigorous and relevant social science research to improve women’s and men’s reproductive lives and autonomy.
