The course is packed full of examples of lactation-specific research to illustrate the concepts taught. Hands-on challenges invite the learner to apply new information by reading and evaluating recent breastfeeding studies. Get the tools you need to feel confident practicing evident-based care. A faculty member at the University of Maryland School of Nursing, Buckley has led several lactation research studies as a primary investigator, focusing on long-term breastfeeding, cultural practices around breastfeeding, and the use of technology in breastfeeding support.
