Funded Activity Summary

CRH made in the brain controls our response to stress, and when made by the placenta it controls when birth will occur. Changes to the stress response can have important implications in heart disease, cancer, obesity and many other diseases. 70% of neonatal death is a result of premature birth, and pre-term babies that survive are more likely to have intellectual handicap or cerebral palsy. This research will help us understand CRH production during stress and pregnancy.
