Early Risk Biomarkers and Fetal Development

In this insightful episode of S.A.B.R.E.E. A Podcast with Dr. Sonji Fatima Harold, I explore the critical role of Early Risk Biomarkers and Fetal Development, illuminating how the earliest biological signals in utero can shape lifelong health outcomes. Drawing from my leadership at S.A.B.R.E.E. Enrichment Academy and my work with the Global Newborn Society, I explain how genetics, epigenetics, maternal health, environmental exposures, and placental function interact during fetal development to influence risk long before symptoms appear. Blending scientific insight with lived experience, I challenge listeners to rethink how and when we identify vulnerability, emphasizing that early biomarkers are not about prediction alone, but about protection, prevention, and the opportunity to intervene sooner. This episode calls for a more equitable, life-course approach to medicine: one that begins where life begins and ensures that every child has the chance to grow, develop, and thrive.Support the showElevating Every Move
