During May and June, you may have gone along to their ‘Teddy Bear’s Picnic’ events across Doncaster, where local parents were invited to participate. The BaBi-D team are pleased to share that the 1000th participant to the study was recently recruited!
Data obtained through the study will help local health organisations explore topics around health inequalities and determine measures to address these areas of concern. Such as whether there are relationships between things that happen in pregnancy and children’s future health, if children in some areas are more likely to get asthma than children in other areas, and how our genes affect our health and lives as we grow up.
Taking part in Babi-D is voluntary and participants are free to withdraw at any time.
You can read more about the project’s success here and if you’d like to get involved and provide the team with your research ideas there is a dedicated Born and Bred in Doncaster website here.
