Paquette Lab
Fetal development is a short period of time that affects health throughout the lifespan. The placenta is a crucial organ that regulates the in-utero environment and alters development. Our lab applies a precision medicine framework to understand the link between environmental exposures, maternal nutrition and other factors and infant health outcomes. We develop and share computational tools for multi-omics data integration using placental networks. Our long-term goal is to gain insight into the underlying molecular mechanisms linking the in-utero environment to infant and child health outcomes. To learn more, please visit our website.
