Exploring how maternal, fetal, and neonatal medicine affects everyone’s health

Maternal and fetal medicine isn’t just for babies. Pregnancy and birth outcomes affect everyone’s health. Join us for an educational event to explore the latest from Iowa’s research leaders and how advancements in maternity care and neonatal medicine support critical health needs in our state.

This evening program will help you understand pre-eclampsia, fetal movement monitoring, and how the neonatal immune system develops — information that will help you be a health advocate for Iowa’s parents and babies.
