Our Vision

Our vision is for NHS Lothian to be a world leader in pregnancy research.

You may have the opportunity to take part in research during your pregnancy.

Research can help to develop new treatments and care interventions, to help improve pregnancy outcomes and experiences. 

You may be approached to take part in research during your pregnancy. Participation is voluntary and will not affect your usual maternity care in any way.
