Pregnancy and Parenthood Working Group

The Pregnancy and Parenthood Working Group is made up of clinicians, researchers, and consumer representatives who bring clinical expertise in their respective fields, with a shared focus on pregnancy, parenthood, and kidney disease. Members contribute their knowledge and lived experience to help guide the direction of ANZDATA’s data collection and ensure it remains relevant and clinically meaningful.

The group plays a central role in maximising the scientific output of the registry by overseeing reporting, supporting research activities, and promoting collaboration both within the group and with external contributors. They provide recommendations to the ANZDATA Advisory Committee regarding the ongoing development of registry activities and outputs.

Key responsibilities of the working group include reviewing the scope of data collected, generating and facilitating research, producing relevant chapters for the Annual Report, and presenting findings at scientific meetings. Membership offers significant opportunities for involvement in ANZDATA’s activities, collaboration, and academic output, but also requires a strong commitment to active participation and contribution to the registry’s research and data processes.
