Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone has done research about complications in pregnancy or pregnancy loss. I’m early on my path to becoming a nurse but wondering if there is a possibility to do research in those areas or if that is more of something MD students or practitioners would do. Is there somewhere I can look to find nurse research in those areas? Thank you!

You need to look at facilities that are part of/affiliated with large teaching hospitals. There are only 2 organizations in the US that I'm aware of that has a dedicated research department that is specific to perinatal research. One is University of Colorado/Children's Hospital Colorado, and the other one is in Portland, OR. CHOP may also have one. Look for large children's hospitals, they often have research departments.

Not sure if this helps yah at all but best of luck to you
