Funded Activity Summary

20% of Australian women develop a problem during pregnancy which can cause illness or death of mother or baby. These are linked with poor placental growth and function. This project will identify novel regulators of human and mouse placental development using state-of-the-art molecular and cellular techniques. This will provide a better understanding of placental development and potentially direct future diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for pregnancy complications
