Our academic publications

The research team for the Trans Pregnancy project are currently preparing a number of peer-reviewed academic publications. These will be based on research findings from media analyses, interviews with trans and non-binary birth parents, plus interviews and focus groups with healthcare practitioners and young trans and non-binary people.
