Caroline Y. Noh: Early Career Investigator biocommentary
Abstract
“What if premature infants didn’t have to struggle on life support, but could instead continue developing in an artificial womb?” This question blazed in my mind in 2008 in the classroom at Ajou University School of Medicine in South Korea, when I first learned about prematurity and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). I envisioned developing an extracorporeal placenta with amniotic fluid where premature infants could thrive. This aspiration ignited my passion for Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine.
