The University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. was awarded a $392,514 Project Grant from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the federal Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865). The grant, awarded on August 5, 2025, will support a study to characterize changes in vitamin D metabolism during pregnancy and examine the association between maternal vitamin D status and offspring bone health. The project aims to provide insights into optimal vitamin D guidance for pregnant women, particularly those with pre-pregnancy obesity, in order to improve maternal vitamin D status and promote fetal bone development. The research will analyze longitudinal data on vitamin D metabolites across pregnancy in two parallel US cohorts, with a focus on understanding how maternal obesity impacts vitamin D metabolism and downstream effects on offspring bone outcomes.
