We need to grow our social media team to make a bigger impact!

If you have experience with any or all social media platforms, please join us.

We need your help to get the word out so that we can deliver this great project to increase the diversity of images in lactation.

The Spectrum Lactation website is now live! 🥳 Share & tag everyone NOW!

After much hard work, our website is now up and running!
Now we need YOU to help us gather images to take us to the next stage, and bring to life our vision of an open access image bank of normality, pathology & anatomical variations in the lactating breast/chest, with a particular focus on Black and Brown skin.

Head over to www.spectrumlactation.org to find out more about the project and how to submit photos.
