Estudios Perinatales
About us
_________
CREP is a national and international reference center dedicated to research, training, and knowledge production in maternal and perinatal health. Our work is based on a deep commitment to scientific quality, ethics, and social impact. For four decades, our mission has focused on generating rigorous evidence that contributes to improving maternal and child care, articulating clinical, epidemiological, and social knowledge. We work with the conviction that scientific knowledge can and should improve the lives of women, their families, and communities.
Our History
40 years of research
Centro Rosarino de Estudios Perinatales was founded in Rosario in 1984 by a group of obstetricians committed to improving maternal and child health through research, human resource training, and the planning of health care strategies.
We are an institution with a history, which, with a comprehensive view, engages with current challenges: what we investigate engages with the world, is transformed, and returns to health teams as concrete improvements for daily care.
