Dr. Ajayi in the News

Her clinical work, research, and life story drive Lasé's advocacy to improve the lives of her patients and her colleagues.  ​She has been featured in local & national fora for her diverse skill set, her unique clinical perspective, and her groundbreaking research in digital health equity and patient empowerment. 
Historically, pregnant people have been excluded from most clinical research, resulting in significant knowledge gaps when it comes to understanding pregnancy on an individual level. Staggering racial inequities make it all the more urgent for scientists to help tackle this national public health crisis.
