  • Postnatal depression (PND) affects up to 20% of new mothers and is influenced by a combination of psychological vulnerabilities and stress during pregnancy, highlighting the importance of mindfulness as a protective factor.
  • This ongoing study, involving 260 women across five maternities, seeks to identify psychobiological predictors of PND by using a multidisciplinary approach that includes psychological, biophysiological, and genetic assessments from early pregnancy through 12 months postpartum.
  • The research has received ethical approval and aims to share its findings through conferences and peer-reviewed journals, contributing to a greater understanding of chronic stress and PND mechanisms.
