Heterogeneity of Gestational Diabetes [ 2013 - 2015 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Victoria Rudland (Principal investigator)

Brief description Gestational diabetes is an important medical condition. We plan to investigate two subgroups of women with gestational diabetes. Firstly, women who have diabetes antibodies in pregnancy. Secondly, women who have a mild form of diabetes caused by a single gene mutation, who may be first identified during pregnancy. Correct identification of these subgroups of women is important for immediate and long-term management of both the mother and her fetus.
