Early mortality and primary causes of death in mothers of children with intellectual disability or Autism spectrum disorder

Mothers of children with intellectual disability or autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have poorer health than other mothers.

Neonatal skin: barrier, immunity and infection prevention in the NICU

The neonatal skin is central to early survival and immune development. Far from being a passive mechanical barrier, it integrates physical, chemical, and microbial defences that together protect the infant in the immediate postnatal period. In preterm infants, structural immaturity, reduced antimicrobial capacity, and altered microbial colonisation confer heightened vulnerability to infection and inflammation.

Aboriginal Advisory Committee - Kids Easy Breathing Study

We are looking for Aboriginal parents who are passionate about lung health to join the Aboriginal Advisory Committee (AAC) for our Kids Easy Breathing Study (KEBS). Research shows 1 in 5 Aboriginal* bubs in hospital for bronchiolitis (a common viral chest infection) later had serious damage to their lungs. The aim of our study is to find out why Aboriginal bubbies are more likely to develop long-term lung sickness.
