Post : Principal Project Associate
Title of Project : Inter-Institutional Program for Maternal, Neonatal and Infant Sciences A translational approach-interdisciplinary Group for Advanced Research on BirtH outcomes-DBT INdia Initiative (GARBH-Ini Phase II). Preterm birth poses a significant global public health Challenge, being the leading cause of neonatal fatalities. India accounts for roughly a quarter of all preterm births and associated deaths worldwide. Understanding the molecular mechanisms behind preterm birth is crucial for early prediction and prevention. The RCB Spearheads a mass spectrometry-based proteomics project to investigate protein alterations across pregnancy stages, identifying those linked to preterm birth and related molecular pathways. The ultimate project objection is to pinpoint biomarkers for early preterm birth prediction and potential drug discovery targets.
