Griffiths' conjecture on simultaneous normalization of periods

Let f:XSf:\mathfrak{X}\to S be an algebraic family of polarized algebraic manifolds over a quasi-projective manifold SS, with period map Φ:SΓ\D\Phi:S\to\Gamma\backslash D and lifted period map Φ~:S~D\widetilde{\Phi}:\widetilde{S}\to D on the universal cover S~\widetilde{S} of SS. For each sSs\in S, let Φ(Xs)\Phi(X_s) denote the period of the fiber Xs=f1(s)X_s=f^{-1}(s). Griffiths' conjecture. There exists a simultaneous normalization of all the periods Φ(Xs)\Phi(X_s) for sSs\in S; more precisely, the image Φ~(S~)\widetilde{\Phi}(\widetilde{S}) lies in a bounded domain in a complex Euclidean space. This conjecture concerns the simultaneous normalization of period maps arising from geometry. The cited context presents it as Griffiths' Conjecture 10.1; the supplied text does not state whether it has been resolved.
