Middlebury College
Caitlin Myers is the John G. McCullough Professor of Economics at Middlebury College. According to her profile, she teaches statistics, regression analysis, and causal inference.
Campus Reform featured Myers in an article titled “‘Unplanned Parenthood’ professor’s research maps out post-Roe abortion travel destinations.” The following map was included to show Myers’ cartography results.
According to Campus Reform, “[Myers] created the ‘Myers Abortion Facility Database,’ which displays how legal changes to abortion access affect the abortion rate, birth rate, and changes the number of available abortion centers.”
The source said Myers’ project, which launched in 2021, included data from clinics that performed abortions from 2009 through 2023.
Myers is also outspoken about her support for abortion on social media:

Proud to be part of this groundbreaking issue of the @AEACSWEP newsletter on the changing landscape of abortion access. Took a brief trip through 5 decades of newsletter archives, and I’m pretty sure this is a first. Thanks @YanaRodgers and @anusha_chari!https://t.co/GjhhmNVfrv pic.twitter.com/4gRy6BqOgP

The Middlebury Campus newspaper published an article praising Myers for her work on the abortion map. The source wrote, “When Myers is not teaching regression analysis or statistics … she engages with these issues in real-world contexts, gaining extensive experience as an expert witness and consultant for Planned Parenthood and the Center for Reproductive Rights … Myers’ abortion access dashboard has given her a platform to publish data that visually illustrates the causal effects of limiting access to reproductive care in the United States.”
