This NICHD grant is for establishing Clinical Centers within the Maternal-Fetal Medicine Units (MFMU) Network, aiming to significantly improve obstetric care, pregnancy health, and outcomes for pregnant and lactating individuals and their infants. The primary purpose is to reduce pressing issues such as maternal mortality, complications, and morbidities associated with pregnancy, labor, and postpartum recovery. Furthermore, it seeks to decrease prematurity, low-birth weight, and infant mortality and morbidities. A key objective also involves expanding the evidence base on the safety and efficacy of therapeutic products used during pregnancy and lactation. The MFMU Network will serve as NICHD’s primary and first-line infrastructure for implementing crucial multi-site obstetric clinical trials, advancing vital research in maternal-fetal health.
