Both Ferring and March of Dimes are committed to advancing research to help prevent the 15 million preterm births each year worldwide. Preterm birth is responsible for 1.1 million infant deaths each year.<sup><a href=\"#note1\" name=\"_ednref1\">1<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWe\u2019re delighted that the talented scientists at Imperial College London will join as the sixth March of Dimes Prematurity Research Center to help us get closer to a world in which all babies are born healthy,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0said Stacey D. Stewart, president of March of Dimes.\u00a0<em>\u201cIt\u2019s vital that our team is able to share information and findings with colleagues outside of the U.S., in order to accelerate the discovery of solutions to the serious problem of premature birth.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Globally, too many babies are being born too soon, and too many families are suffering the consequences,\u201d\u00a0<\/em>said Per Falk, Executive Vice President and Chief Science Officer, Ferring Pharmaceuticals.\u00a0<em>\u00a0\u201cFerring is committed to addressing unmet patient needs in reproductive medicine and women\u2019s health, including the growing rates of preterm birth worldwide.

Imperial College London and its partner hospitals have renowned clinics for supporting women who deliver preterm, as well as a long tradition of ground-breaking research in this area. As London is a truly global city, we are also fortunate to encompass a large and diverse patient population.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Our teams of world-class scientists will be using the latest technologies, some unique to Imperial, to study how the body recognises and interacts with bacteria and other microbes in the birth canal.

Each of these hospitals deliver around 5,000 babies a year.<\/p>\n<p>The network of March of Dimes Prematurity Research Centers encompasses approximately 200 scientists in numerous fields, including obstetrics, neonatology, genetics and genomics, immunology, engineering, informatics, and social sciences. (NOTE: See below for a complete list of the Prematurity Research Centers).<\/p>\n<p>Each March of Dimes Prematurity Research Center is assigned a theme or research target. The theme selected for Imperial College London is entitled, \u201cMicrobe-Host Interactions.\u201d\u00a0This team of scientists will identify and characterise these complex processes in order to obtain insight into why some women are at higher risk for preterm birth.<\/p>\n[\/spb_boxed_content] [spb_blank_spacer height=&#8221;30px&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;] [spb_blank_spacer height=&#8221;30px&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;] [spb_boxed_content type=&#8221;coloured&#8221; box_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; padding_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; padding_horizontal=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;]\n<h3 style=\"color: #0088ce\">About Preterm Birth<\/h3>\n<p>Preterm birth (before 37 weeks of pregnancy) and its consequences are the leading cause of death among children under age five worldwide.
