Estimation of quantitative levels of diesel exhaust exposure and the health impact in the contemporary Australian mining industry

To estimate the levels of exposure to diesel exhaust expressed by EC in the mining industry and to describe the risk of lung cancer that may result from it.

Cancer incidence in the Western Australian mining industry

Working underground emerged as a significant determinant of lung cancer risk in our contemporary mining cohort

Examining the overlap in lymphatic filariasis prevalence and malaria insecticide-treated net access-use in endemic Africa

Eradication and elimination strategies for lymphatic filariasis (LF) primarily rely on multiple rounds of annual mass drug administration (MDA), but also may benefit from vector control interventions conducted by malaria vector control programs. We aim to examine the overlap in LF prevalence and malaria vector control to identify potential gaps in program coverage. 

Skin Microbiome

The skin is home to an array of bacteria, fungi and viruses, which together make up the skin microbiome. We explore how the skin microbiome can contribute to healthy skin.

Beyond Seizures as an Outcome Measure: A Global Severity Scoring System for CDKL5 Deficiency Disorder

CDKL5 deficiency disorder (CDD) is a rare developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) associated with multiple impairments and comorbidities. Outcome measures for disease-modifying clinical trials for DEEs should measurably capture a spectrum of caregiver priorities and be externally validated.

Intrauterine growth restriction promotes hypothalamic circadian dysregulation in adult mouse offspring

Adverse prenatal conditions can induce intrauterine growth restriction and increase the risk of adulthood metabolic disease. Mechanisms underlying developmentally programmed metabolic disease remain unclear but may involve disrupted postnatal circadian rhythms and kisspeptin signalling.
