I am an Ontario, Canada midwife and researcher. I was in attendance at the midwifery researcher meeting in Toronto last June, in conjunction with the ICM, where we discussed the need to build evidence around normal birth. I would be very interested in continuing this work and would like to volunteer to lend a hand.
