Brief description I am an Obstetrician interested in the problems of growth-restricted babies. Devastatingly, many of these babies do not survive pregnancy and survivors face difficult challenges throughout their lifetime. My research uses the latest ultrasound technology to study their heart while still in the womb, evaluating if our current treatments are safe or possibly harmful, and finally testing melatonin as an antioxidant to protect their heart from damage they may sustain while still in the womb.
