Pregnant, miserable, and starving in 21st century sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Important reading for anyone who thinks "morning sickness" is a mild and transient problem of little biomedical significance. Think again. Second commonest cause of admission of pregnant women to hospital

~2% of pregnant people suffer from hyperemesis gravidarum — severe, persistent nausea and vomiting that can be life-threatening. Last month researchers reported what causes it, so what’s next?💊 Grateful I could cover this essential topic for National Geographic nationalgeographic.com/premium/articl…

Exciting news! 🌟Our own Marlena Fejzo and AIJIA were featured on the TODAY with Maria Shriver. #hyperemesisgravidarum #pregnancyjourney

🎙SEASON 3: We're kicking off the return of our podcast with Marlena Fejzo, PhD, who discusses her recent study on extreme morning sickness. Learn more about the clinical implications of her findings & why she decided to study this area of research. 📷Listen📷keck.usc.edu/pphs/podcast/

I am ecstatic to be recognized as one of Time’s Women of the Year! I continue to advance HG research so that it may be prevented and treated for better maternal/child outcomes. You can support my work directly at bit.ly/fejzo. Thank you TIME! Photo/Christina Gandolfo

Such an honor and a blast to celebrate with these amazing ladies last night! Thank you TIME ! Ada Limón , Nadia Murad , Taraji P. Henson , Andra Day , Coco Gauff , Greta Gerwig, Yael Admi, Reem Hajajreh, Jacqui Patterson, Leena Nair, and Claudia Goldin.

Thrilled to see this preprint revealing "complete GDF15 loss is compatible with life and fertility!" Now let's get those GDF15/GFRAL inhibitors into HG patients! doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…

Happy to see this Japanese genetic study of nausea and vomiting of pregnancy (NVP) by Yonezawa et al. supports our findings that GDF15 is the greatest genetic risk factor and most likely cause! ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

Such an honor (and what fun: ) to give the keynote and attend the NGM Bio research retreat in Napa-so grateful this brilliant team that discovered GFRAL years ago is moving forward with development to test NGM120 for HG! Thank you @NGM

What a week! @HarmoniaHealthcare we opened our first HG Treatment Center, was honored to make TIME 2024 #TIME100HEALTH list, and was thrilled Dave Bridges et al posted GDF15 is “not critical for (mouse) pregnancy weight gain, food intake, or early postnatal offspring health!”

This HGAwarenessDay, I want thank @Time for giving us a platform with giants Halle Berry, Eli Lilly and Company Daniel Skovronsky, and moderator Alice Park to spread the word about HG and the progress we have made! Getting there with HER Foundation, @HarmoniaHealthcare, NGM Bio!

Time to turn the page! "Hyperemesis gravidarum theories dispelled by recent research: a paradigm change for better care and outcomes" authors.elsevier.com/a/1j80E5Eb1BdX…

pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac… Women's healthcare call for action includes HG! No FDA approved medications for a condition that causes immense suffering in 3% (or even more because it is under-diagnosed) pregnancies! Thank you Wendy Young @GoogleVentures

Amazing to see Hyperemesis Gravidarum featured on the cover of Trends in Molecular Medicine! Really touching artwork depicting the theme of my article-dispelling (literally vomiting) harmful HG myths once and for all!

Our paper on GDF15 and Pregnancy sickness PMID 38092039 has been shortlisted for a Science Breakthrough of the Year, #FallingWalls Science Summit (7-9 Nov). Great team work incl @drfejzo Sam Lockhart and many others falling-walls.com/science-summit/ @FallingWalls

Delighted and honored to receive the 2024 Victoria J. Mastrobuono Award in Women’s Health from an organization that has inspired me for decades! Thank you #NOW!

#OurWorkIsNotDone Support safety and health for all women! #NadiaMurad

Hyperemesis Gravidarum, HG, is a much more severe form of morning sickness often leading to dehydration, weight loss and other symptoms. Marlena Fejzo turned her grief into research after suffering from HG

Our work with ⁦Marlena Fejzo⁩ on Pregnancy Sickness has been shortlisted for a Life Science breakthrough of the year award by the Falling Walls Foundation ⁦Inst Metabolic Science-Metabolic Research Labs. Thanks to all the collaborators who contributed to this. falling-walls.com

Congratulations Marlena Fejzo and stephen o'rahilly (its pronounced O-RA-hill-EEE), on becoming a winner in the Falling Walls Breakthrough of the Year 2024 category of #LifeSciences for your work on hyperemesis gravidarum!
