Research that screens novel genetic variants identified in disease will be fast-tracked by a funding boost, offering new hope of an early diagnosis for families of children with a rare or undiagnosed genetic disease.
Professor Aleksandra Filipovska has been appointed as the inaugural Louis Landau Chair of Child Health Research.
The generous support of West Australians through Channel 7’s Telethon Trust will help support vital child health research at The Kids Research Institute Australia in 2023.
Young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people receiving long-term, painful injections to prevent deadly complications from rheumatic heart disease (RHD) will design their own optimum treatment program thanks to latest research at The Kids Research Institute Australia.
Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive lung disease in which circulatory biomarkers has the potential for guiding management in clinical practice. We assessed the prognostic role of serum biomarkers in three independent IPF cohorts, the Australian IPF Registry (AIPFR), Trent Lung Fibrosis (TLF) and Prospective Observation of Fibrosis in the Lung Clinical Endpoints (PROFILE).
One way the Wal-yan Respiratory Research Centre provides the opportunity for consumers and community members to contribute to our research is through participation in one of our eight community reference groups.

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) remains the most common complication of preterm birth with lifelong consequences. Multiple BPD definitions are currently used in daily practice. Uniformity in defining BPD is important for clinical care, research and benchmarking. The aim of this Delphi procedure is to determine what clinicians and researchers consider the key features for defining BPD.
