Funded Activity Summary

We aim to understand how inadequate oxygen supply to the fetus during pregnancy can affect development of the kidney. Many babies do not get enough oxygen whilst developing in the womb. This can be due to a poorly formed placenta or the mother smoking. This can interfere with normal growth and formation of the kidney. Our knowledge may help babies get the best start to life.
