Who are we and what do we do?
The International Collaboration for Hypermesis Gravidarum Research is a working group consisting of patient organisations, practising clinicians International Collaboration on Hyperemesis Gravidarum Research.
Our Mission
In addition to members holding biennial conferences in alternating locations, the group is working on a number of international research projects and providing patient/public involvement on many more.
Our blog and podcast provides a platform for researchers to promote their projects relating to hyperemesis gravidarum, receive feedback from patients and peers and to engage with the public.
Research Projects
The Hyperemesis Gravidarum Priority Setting Partnership (HG PSP) has come together following the 2nd International Colloquium on Hyperemesis Gravidarum held in the UK in October 2017. During this event leading HG researchers as well as patients from around the world agreed that setting Research Priorities for the condition was itself a priority and motivation for such a project was strong.
Who we are
Let us support your project
Research has been undeniably improved through patient and public involvement in design, recruitment and dissemination. Women who have suffered HG are often highly motivated to take part in research and to collaborate with teams to ensure the research money is well spent and effective.
We can provide Patient involvement in research design in a number of countries worldwide through our extensive network of patient organisations and affiliated clinicians.

"I thoroughly enjoyed the ICHG conference. All the topics were covered well. I really enjoyed seeing and hearing from speakers from other countries. There was so much enthusiasm and passion in the room and that was great to see."
Get Involved
We believe that the quality and quantity of hyperemesis gravidarum research can be increased through effective international collaboration and promoting patient involvement in the development of research. High quality research will ultimately benefit the women suffering this debilitating condition, the healthcare professionals charged with their care and treatment and the future generation born to affected mothers.
