Supporting Research
AAPEC is proud to actively support research across all aspects of preeclampsia, recognising that high-quality research is essential to improving prevention, early detection, treatment, and long-term outcomes for women and their families. Over recent years, AAPEC has partnered with and supported a range of research projects that advance understanding of preeclampsia amplify women’s voices and help translate evidence into better clinical care.

- AAPEC has provided letters of support for research grant applications
- Members of the AAPEC Committee have participated as investigators on research grant applications
Successful grant applications include:
