Research programmes

MD PhD J.W. Ganzevoort (Placental disorders of Pregnancy: Fetal Growth Restriction and Hypertension)

The program focuses on the maternal-fetal syndromes of placental insufficiency, the maternal including pre-eclampsia and HELLP-syndrome; the fetal including fetal growth restriction.

I am leading in international consensus procedures on nomenclature, international cooperation in the STRIDERproject (with five simultaneous RCTs) on treatment of FGR, TRUFFLE projects on diagnosis/monitoring/intervention in FGR.
