The lab is a midwifery lab that builds high-quality evidence for the health of parents, infants, and women in the perinatal period.

AboutAbout the lab
For the health of perinatal parents and infants, and of women across their lifespan.
Perinatal epidemiology works to elucidate the causes of, and develop support methods for, physical and mental health problems of parents and infants in the perinatal period and of women across their lifespan.
The graduate school offers a course focused on training midwives, the "Advanced Practice Midwifery" track, and a course focused on training researchers.
In the Advanced Practice Midwifery track, students earn the credits required to be eligible for the national midwife examination and acquire skills such as assisting deliveries and ultrasound diagnosis.
