“Teaching at UD has always been my dream. Of course, I wanted to gain experience in research, but I came back to obtain my doctorate because I knew I wanted to work here as an assistant professor in the School of Nursing. I wanted to have the same impact on students that my professors at UD had on me.”

Haigh works in reproductive endocrinology. Her research focus is on what young adults understand as their future fertility potential. “There is a big gap between how young adults are educated,” said Haigh. “Most of the time, it’s on pregnancy prevention, which is appropriate, but there is no further guidance on how to family build when you’re ready — information like, ‘When does fertilization occur?’ Most doctors aren’t talking to their patients about that.”
