The NPEU is a multi-disciplinary research unit which was established at the University of Oxford in 1978. Our mission is:
to conduct methodologically rigorous research to provide evidence to improve the care provided to women and their families during pregnancy, childbirth, the newborn period and early childhood as well as promoting the effective use of resources by perinatal health services.
Louise Linsell, Senior Medical Statistician from NPEU, will be presenting the latest results from the EPICURE study, “Born at the threshold of viability: impact on cognitive development into adulthood” (2nd November). Associate Professor Ed Juszczak will also be attending the conference, if you're there, please come and say hello!
Louise has two related articles on cognitive and behavioural trajectories in the EPICURE cohort should be published in the very near future.
