Extract

Much of our current understanding of human gestation is largely based on information extracted from animal and cell models. Although this information has been fundamental for progression of reproductive research, much of it examines biological molecules in isolation rather than the integrated manner in which they function. Disruption to these fundamental processes is the source of pregnancy complications, of which for many (including pre-eclampsia) the exact aetiology has not been fully elucidated. We need to re-examine the limited way by which we approach these problems, and aim to understand pathophysiology in a more inclusive/holistic way.
