Cardio-Obstetrics Research - Lab Website

  • Under the division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, our Cardio-Obstetric research efforts seek to advance the field of gynecology through medical care and innovation. With a focus on the effect of heart conditions on pregnancy and the ways in which pregnancy can put stress on your heart and circulatory system, our goal in this multi-disciplinary research is that our findings may lead to the development of new treatments or preventative therapies for patients and their babies to better manage a heart condition during pregnancy.
