Sara Conroy

Sara Conroy's research focuses on outcomes for premature and critically ill newborns, particularly those with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (a chronic lung disease of prematurity), congenital heart disease, and Down syndrome. Her work often uses large national databases to study how factors like gestational age, sex, and feeding methods affect survival and complications, and she has also examined how changes in abortion policy following the Dobbs decision relate to birth rates of infants with certain congenital conditions.

Publication output grew sharply from 2017 through a peak in 2023, followed by a slight decline in 2024-2025, though overall activity remains substantially higher than a decade ago.
