We’ve heard from families that trustworthy information about preterm-associated lung disease is difficult to find. In response, we’ve created resources to empower families with the knowledge they need to manage these challenges.

Preterm babies have a heightened risk of infection as their immune system is not mature. The Neonatal Health Team is exploring new ways to diagnose, prevent and treat infections in WA's smallest patients .

This study will identify how the immune system contributes to neurodevelopmental outcomes and will investigate the use of an agent from traditional medicines.

This study will investigate the why disease is worse in infants and how early life viral infection impacts the developing immune system.

This is a strategic “pilot” project in which we are seeking basic information on the immune cell content of gestational tissues.

This project investigates how different populations of cells within the respiratory tract immune system are altered during a viral infection.
