Uncovering the Causes of Pregnancy Loss
The two questions I hear the most from patients are “Why did this happen to me?” and “Will this happen again?”

Our goal with the HOPE project is to Harness multiple Opportunities for Pregnancy loss Exploration. This research will provide answers to both these questions using a multi-pronged approach involving molecular profiling, machine learning, and whole genome sequencing of the trio at the center of recurrent pregnancy loss — the mother, the father, and past pregnancies. If you and your partner have experienced pregnancy loss, join our study and be a part of our efforts to explain and predict recurrent pregnancy loss.
Are you interested in joining our study?
We are looking for couples that have experienced pregnancy loss and are willing to participate in our study’s activities.
Do you have patients that have experienced miscarriage?
If you have patients with a documented history of recurrent pregnancy loss without an identifiable cause, we are interested in including them in our study.
