Excited to share our paper, part of my thesis, in @eLife! We show the potential of immune mediators in forecasting #pretermbirth. Want to learn about biomarkers in predicting pregnancy outcomes? Click here: doi.org/10.7554/eLife.90943 #PRBTeam @nardhygomez @KevinRTheis @AdiTarca

The vaginal immunoproteome in pregnancy is more predictive of spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) than maternal characteristics alone, with sPTB cases showing heightened pro-inflammatory profiles...

Scientists applied a multifaceted approach to characterize immune responses taking place in expectant mothers with #COVID19, their fetuses, and their placentas. @derektm9 @valeriaqbp @nardhygomez #scicomm #openscience Let's break it down: ow.ly/j0Y850JYbNq

Little is known about IFNe in pregnancy. Our new @HeliyonJournal study explores the expression of this unique interferon and suggests a role in intra-amniotic infection leading to preterm birth: bit.ly/IFNepsilon @nardhygomez #PRBteam #NGLlab @NICHD_NIH @i_am_intramural

Very excited to share with you our paper showing the effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy. Not only the mother (even if asymptomatic) responds to the infection, but also the fetus and the placenta. #PRBteam nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

A mighty research team @waynestate have discovered that the COVID-19 infection during pregnancy may cause inflammatory immune responses in the fetus, even if the virus does not infect the placenta. #NIH #MaternalFetal #COVIDinPregnancy today.wayne.edu/medicine/new…
