Research interests
Gülen leads the IMAG Study Group (imaging of fetal malformations and genetic). The focus of the working group is the scientific workup of abnormalities detected in prenatal ultrasound and the underlying genetic etiology. Furthermore, the implementation of a database for medically induced terminations of pregnancies (TOPFet Register) in order to be able to scientifically process this important area of prenatal diagnostics.
In addition to general fetal medicine and genetics, another major area of interest is fetal and maternal cardiac assessment, as well as twin pregnancies just like twin pregnancies and their complications. In recent years there has been a significant increase in twins and higher-order multiple pregnancies. This special patient population therefore also deserves more attention.
She is currently collaborating with international research groups and is building a biobank for multiple pregnancies.
