Abstract

This is a revision of Program Project proposal 1 PO1 HD-047609 'Gene-Environment Interactions in HumanParturition' that was submitted in October 2003, reviewed by an NICHD Special Emphasis Panel, and receiveda priority score of 199 (30th percentile). In this research program we proposed to identify the genetic andenv/ronmenfa/ determinants of the length of human gestation/ timing of onset of spontaneous parturition, andto model the gene, environment, and maternal-fetal interactions that may underlie the risk of premature birthamong three racial/ ethnic populations: African-Americans, Hispanics and nonHispanic Whites.The previous review commented favorably on all aspects of the Administrative Core as proposed, anddetermined that overall the Core appears appropriate and should be able to meet its functions. The review didnot raise any concerns about the Core.
