Human Placenta Project

The Human Placenta Project is a research initiative focused on understanding how the placenta develops and functions during pregnancy. The placenta is an essential organ that connects the mother and baby, providing nutrients and oxygen while removing waste. By studying its biology in real-time, scientists aim to identify early signs of pregnancy complications like preeclampsia or fetal growth issues. The goal is to improve maternal and fetal health outcomes, develop better diagnostics, and support healthy pregnancies through advanced technologies and research.
