Over the course of the past four decades, First Candle has funded cutting-edge research projects at medical institutions throughout the United States. Under the auspices of our Medical and Scientific Advisory Council, an internationally-recognized body of senior-level pediatric scientists, we continue to provide a single, focused outlet for individuals and organizations interested in supporting research to further our understanding of stillbirth, SIDS and other causes of sudden, unexpected infant death (SUID).

Thanks to our partners at Georgetown University’s National Sudden and Unexpected Infant/Child Death and Pregnancy Loss Resource Center, we are pleased to share with you some excellent resources for familiarizing yourself with the latest research. These include:

• Topical bibliographies, including topics such as SIDS, stillbirth, breastfeeding, immunization, pacifiers and fetal movement monitoring
• Journal alerts, which catalog the abstracts for the latest infant death and pregnancy loss research by date

Coming soon: Topical abstract listing of recently-published research.
