  • Biography/ Background

    Jodie Dodd is an Obstetrician and Maternal Fetal Medicine Specialist at the University of Adelaide and Women's and Children's Health Network. She is the current Chair of the South Australian Maternal and Neonatal Clinical Network, and is editor for the Pregnancy and Childbirth Group of the Cochrane Collaboration.

     The focus of her research is to ensure that care for women and their infant's is effective, and that treatment benefits outweigh harms. Using the evidence generated from randomised trials and systematic reviews, and the subsequent development of clinical practice guidelines, the reliability of treatment recommendations is enhanced, thereby improving health outcomes for women and their babies. Specific areas of research interest include care for women with a multiple pregnancy, care during labour, and obesity in pregnancy.

    Jodie Dodd currently holds a NHMRC Practitioner Fellowship, and prior to that a Neil Hamilton Fairley Fellowship, which enabled post-doctoral work to be undertaken through the University of Toronto, Canada.
