Research:
Pregnancy showcases a remarkable example of immunological regulation that is meticulously orchestrated by the mother, fetus, and placenta. When this delicate equilibrium is disrupted, it can result in a range of pregnancy complications. Our research is dedicated to investigating the immunobiological pathways that underlie such pregnancy complications, with a special emphasis on preterm birth. We seek to advance our understanding and develop targeted strategies for the prevention and management of preterm birth, ultimately promoting the well-being of both mothers and infants.
