PREBIC will begin various working group activities aimed to reduce the risk of preterm birth. Due to COVID-19 related issues, all working group activities in 2021 will be virtual events.

PREBIC working groups are a core component of the PREBIC mission to foster collaboration between investigators seeking to solve the problem of preterm birth.

Working groups comprise up to 20 participants representing a specific area of interest in preterm birth research.

Working group discussions are facilitated by group leaders and designed as informal sharing of ideas aimed at addressing specific are of preterm birth pathophysiology and prevention.

Working group meetings will be via zoom at a data/time/duration set by the group participants. Working group web pages will be part of the PREBIC website.
