Improving the fetal to neonatal transition in compromised newborns; towards better outcomes for babies born too soon or with under-developed lungs

全球每年有1300万名孕妇因出生问题而受到影响，这是导致新生儿死亡、残疾和慢性疾病的最大原因。我将确定极大地改善早产儿和肺部发育不全婴儿的胎儿向新生儿过渡的机制。迫切需要这项研究提供必要的证据，以便有针对性地在产房进行干预，以减少受影响新生儿的短期和长期疾病负担。

The birth of a compromised infant affects 13 million pregnancies worldwide annually and is the greatest cause of neonatal death, disability and chronic disease. I will identify mechanisms to greatly improve the fetal to neonatal transition in premature babies and babies with under-developed lungs. This research is urgently required to provide the necessary evidence to target interventions in the delivery room to reduce the short- and long-term burden of disease in compromised newborns.
