Peri-conception Determinants Of Reproductive And Pregnancy Health
Funder

Funding Amount
$3,560,520.00
Summary
Reproductive and pregnancy disorders are common in Australian men and women, with 6% couples seeking infertility services and another 30% experiencing recurrent miscarriage, preeclampsia or preterm birth, often resulting in life-time health problems for children, and sometimes stillbirth. This research will investigate the immune causes of these conditions, and the results will contribute to new health tools, diagnostics and medical treatments to support maternal and infant health.
Improving Cardiovascular Outcomes Through Better Trials
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$1,714,215.00
Summary
Randomised trials are the cornerstone of high quality medical practice. There is an urgent need to do more trials but there are major challenges - timely recruitment of participants, inclusion of representative patients and control of costs are issues we face every day. I will commence a series of new trials evaluating interventions for cardiovascular disease. In parallel I will develop and test innovative solutions to the practicalities of doing large-scale studies.
