This phase of the TEN will establish perinatal multi-barrier transport network frameworks to clarify how transporters and local biotransformation regulate these processes. Building on prior organ-focused models, methods, and datasets, this initiative will develop standards, resources, models, and prototype multi-compartment approaches spanning maternal gut, placenta, lactating mammary epithelium, infant gut, and infant blood-brain barrier. …
