Volume 13 Supplement 1

Preterm Birth - Interdisciplinary research from the Preterm Birth and Healthy Outcomes Team (PreHOT)

Research

Edited by Andrew W Lyon, BF Mitchell and Olivia McCreary

PreHOT aims to improve the health and wellbeing of preterm infants through research and knowledge translation: to predict risk of preterm birth, to elucidate ways to prevent preterm birth and to effectively intervene and improve health and development outcomes for preterm infants. This supplement contains thirteen articles describing PreHOT research projects, all united in the aim to provide important information that helps to solve the complex problem of preterm birth.

See a related interview with Andrew Lyon, one of the PreHOT team in the BMC series blog.

This publication, and the research projects it features, were funded by the Preterm Birth and Healthy Outcomes Team Interdisciplinary Team Grant (#200700595) from Alberta Innovates - Health Solutions, formerly the Alberta Heritage Foundation for Medical Research
