Maternal health research group

We are interested in the impact of pregnancy on cardiovascular health and vice versa, the impact of cardiovascular disease on pregnancy.

We take a life-course epidemiological approach, using evidence synthesis, quantitative and qualitative research methodology. We have active national and international collaborations in Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Taiwan, and the United States.

Research topic areas

  • Pregnancy complications and long-term cardiovascular health
  • Postnatal care following pregnancy complications
  • Health inequalities
