The MAMS Project
Mechanisms Affecting Milk Supply
The MAMS Project is an ambitious research project that will collect data and biological samples from breastfeeding women. This will help scientists and clinicians identify the underlying causes of the most common breastfeeding problems so that we can prevent or treat them, supporting women to breastfeed for as long as they choose.
About The Mams Project
Our mission is to uncover the physiological mechanisms that cause common breastfeeding problems so we can prevent them arising, and resolve them when they do.
Our objective is to apply this new-found knowledge in supporting women to breastfeed for as long as they choose to, with practical, personalised solutions.
The MAMS Project is ambitious and innovative. By taking a longer term approach, where we will gather information from breastfeeding women over the course of their lactation, we can take a deeper look at the mechanisms that control milk production, and better identify what causes things to go wrong.
We hope to recruit 100 women to join the study
