Three very basic questions guide our work. First, what are the effective, low-cost tools (both those in development and those on the market) that can save the lives of mothers and newborns in low-resource settings? Second, given the tools that exist, what are the priorities for new ideas? And third, where are the facilities located that can provide skilled care to women?
