Infos

Maternal-Fetal and Neonatal Endocrinology: Physiology, Pathophysiology, and Clinical Management, Second Edition continues to systematically examine the normal and abnormal endocrinology of the pregnant and lactating female and of the fetus and neonate. This new edition expands coverage of specific disorders and diseases beyond the current endocrinology content on the market making it the go-to reference for translational and clinical research scientists to appreciate the research gaps that require further investigation. It’s comprehensive coverage of pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatments, will help readers better understand how various diseases present differently in pregnancy and lactation and how to respond to related complications.

Dr. Kovács is a highly recognized Research Professor of Medicine, Endocrinology, Obstetrics & Gynecology and has received over a dozen national and international awards for excellence in research, including a Gold Medal in Medicine from the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada; Young Investigator Award from the Canadian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism, and Young Investigator Awards from the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research and Advances in Mineral Metabolism. He has served on Editorial Boards of journals, CIHR and NIH grant committees, and as a reviewer for grant agencies in Canada, USA, England, Ireland, and Australia. He was also on the Institute of Medicine / National Academies of Science USA Committee to Review Calcium and Vitamin D. His graduate students have won over 60 international, national, and local awards for excellence in research from various international societies. Cheri L. Deal, PhD, MD, is a Professor of Endocrinology in the Department of Pediatrics, University of Montreal, and the Chief of the Endocrinology Service at the Ste-Justine Mother-Child University Teaching Hospital in Montreal, Canada. Her training took her to McGill University, University of Montreal, and finally Stanford University for her endocrine research fellowship in placental growth. Past President of both the Canadian Pediatric Endocrine Group and the Canadian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism, she now chairs the Education Committee of the International Society of Endocrinology. Her awards include the Young Investigator Award from the Pediatric Endocrine Society (previously LWPES), and most recently the Harvey Guyda Educator of the Year Award and the Robert Volpé Service Award from the Canadian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism. Her major research interest is in the contribution of the growth hormone-insulin-like growth factor (GH-IGF) axis to the regulation of human growth. She has a strong commitment to patient-driven research, and has helped to elucidate the molecular defects associated with a wide range of rare pediatric endocrine disorders as well as participated in clinical studies aimed at ameliorating outcomes in a variety of pediatric endocrine diseases.
