About the Consortium on Thyroid and Pregnancy
The Consortium on Thyroid and Pregnancy is a non-profit collaboration of doctors and researchers interested in the effects of thyroid function on pregnancy and child development. Currently, the consortium consists of over 50 individuals representing 25 cohort studies with data on thyroid function during pregnancy. Currently, there are 5 ongoing studies on various clinical outcomes using the dataset that comprises individual participant data of roughly 80.000 pregnant women and their children. The consortium is open access, and those interested in collaborating, sponsoring or performing studies are more than welcome to contact us.
