Overview

Oded Langer was affiliated with The University of Texas at San Antonio in the United States. Their research primarily focused on medicine, with significant contributions to obstetrics and gynecology, as well as pediatrics, perinatology, and child health.

Their work addressed topics including maternal and perinatal health interventions, infant development and preterm care, neonatal and fetal brain pathology, grief, bereavement, and mental health, as well as issues related to homicide, infanticide, and child abuse. Additional areas covered included pregnancy-related medical research and neurological disorders and treatments.

Langer published multiple papers in UNC Libraries, which served as a frequent venue for their research dissemination. Key papers included:

  • Timing of Elective Repeat Cesarean Delivery at Term and Neonatal Outcomes (2021, UNC Libraries)
  • White's Classification of Maternal Diabetes and Vaginal Birth After Cesarean Delivery Success in Women Undergoing a Trial of Labor (2020, UNC Libraries)
  • Does Information Available at Admission for Delivery Improve Prediction of Vaginal Birth after Cesarean? (2021, UNC Libraries)
  • Mode of Delivery in Women with Antepartum Fetal Death and Prior Cesarean Delivery (2020, UNC Libraries)
  • Prediction of uterine rupture associated with attempted vaginal birth after cesarean delivery (2020, UNC Libraries)

Frequent coauthors who collaborated extensively with Langer included Catherine Y. Spong, Michael W. Varner, Ronald J. Wapner, Yoram Sorokin, and Menachem Miodovnik.
