The immunological studies are oriented on various clinical situations:
- Healthy, naturally conceived pregnancy
- Pregnancy after oocyte donation, both healthy and complicated
- Women with recurrent pregnancy loss
- Women with chronic histiocytic intervillositis (severe form of placental inflammation)
There is strong collaboration between the Depts of Immunology and Obstetrics-Gynaecology. Dr. Marie-Louise van der Hoorn is fetal-maternal-medicine specialist and is a (co)principal investigator in many projects. Dr. Michael Eikmans and Dr. van der Hoorn are enthusiastically guiding young researchers in conducting scientific research.
