Maternal weight gain is closely monitored during pregnancy, because as pregnancy weight gain increases, so does the risk of maternal postpartum weight retention, diabetes, and high blood pressure. While lower weight gain may prevent these health outcomes, it may also increase risk of fetal growth restriction and perinatal death. Thus, public health recommendations on optimal pregnancy weight gain that balances these risks are important, especially in countries as Canada, where the proportion of overweight and obesity among women and children has been increasing.

Modelling return on investment for women's health research in Canada.
Women’s health research has been historically neglected and remains underfunded in Canada. We are aiming to investigate the impact of increasing research funding for women’s cardiovascular health by simulating effects on individual health outcomes and healthcare expenditures.

Our DNA contains genes that provide instructions for making proteins essential for life. However, genes alone aren't enough – they need switches that control when and where they turn on or off. These switches, called regulatory elements, are scattered throughout our DNA, often far from the genes they control. About 650 000 potential regulatory elements have been identified in human DNA. However, we don't understand how they choose which genes to control or how they work. This is important because genetic changes in regulatory elements can lead to diseases, including cancer.
