Woman, Mother + Baby Research Institute

Woman, Mother & Baby Research Institute aims to enhance the lifelong health of women, mothers and babies by building, growing and training a community of collaborative researchers with a multidisciplinary perspective. Our holistic view of patients, their families and communities uniquely positions us to reduce inequities and improve health outcomes across generations.
 

We believe in a future where every parent can make informed decisions for their and their children's long-term health through advanced diagnostics and personalized treatments.

Our physicians, scientists and researchers are devoting their careers to improving the health of pregnant women and their babies. Working with our colleagues at Tufts University, we use "bench to bedside" research to advance knowledge and make new treatments available in less time.

We offer both large and targeted trials to patients. Our clinical trials usually fall into one of two categories:

• Investigator-initiated clinical trials – researchers design research studies and apply to major federal institutions like the National Institutes of Health for funding to conduct the study.
• Multi-center clinical trials – nationwide or international projects that hospitals and other groups around the world can join and enroll patients into.

If you are interested in participating in a clinical trial, our staff will assist you and your family every step of the way. We rigorously follow all federal regulations and requirements for conducting clinical trials. We also recruit patients and work directly with them and their families throughout the process.

Often, you or a family member may be unsure about deciding if you should enroll in a trial. We help you understand the options and give you all the information needed to make a well-informed decision about participation.

Once you've enrolled in a trial, our research teams are here with you and your family throughout the process. We're always here to answer any questions about the trial and help with coordinating appointments.
