Nottingham's Schools of Molecular Medical Sciences and Clinical Sciences (Division of Human Development) are the leads in the multi-centre Genetics of Pre-Eclampsia (GOPEC) study. Although the first phase is complete, trans-national genetic collaborations are developing from the study, and we plan to follow up the babies as they reach school age. We are also currently undertaking other long-term collaborative (Universities of Leicester, Newcastle 0n Tyne and Bern, Switzerland ) follow-up studies of mothers and babies who have been exposed to pre-eclampsia. The genetics and function of the renin-angiotensin system in normal and pathological (pre-eclamptic) pregnancy is another major interest of our group. These studies are complemented by studies of myometrial physiology and pathology. We are also now collaborating with the Schools of Pharmacy, Biomedical Sciences and Biological Sciences in studies of antioxidants in human volunteers and in pregnancy. A further collaboration is with the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, relating to the validation and use of a new, very small and portable, fetal heart rate monitor and the derivation of physiologically-relevant information from the fetal electrocardiogram.
