Research Tuesdays: sharing great research with the community
It takes two: How analysis of mum's and dad's DNA can predict and enhance pregnancy success The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide's Robinson Institute is on the brink of enabling a quantum leap forward in the care of pregnant women and their babies. The Institute's research has revealed that subtle variations in specific gene sequences in a mother, father or their baby indicate the mother is more likely to suffer pregnancy complications. As a result, work is underway to create a genetic test that will - for the first time - identify a couple's risk of complications before symptoms arise, allowing potentially life-saving tailored antenatal care. In this fascinating presentation, Associate Professor Claire Roberts will explain her team's exciting progress, and will discuss many other known pregnancy risk factors. Claire Roberts is a Senior Research Fellow and leads the Placental Development Laboratory in the Discipline of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide, where she has worked for the past 13 years. She is Scientific Director of the SA SCOPE study. When: 5.30-6.30pm Tuesday 12 May
Where: Lecture Room G04, Napier Building, North Terrace Campus
Admission free, RSVP essential
