The establishment of National Perinatal Epidemiology Centre at Cork University Maternity Hospital (CUMH) is a major step forward in mother/infant healthcare in Ireland and will lead to direct monitoring and analysis of the 60,000 births that take place in the Republic each year. The proposal for such a centre was first mooted by Professors John Higgins and Richard Greene (Director) and marks the opening of a new era in Irish medicine.
