Effect Of Sex Steroids, Inflammation, Environmental And Biopsychosocial Factors On Cardiometabolic Disease Risk In Men

Funding Amount
$1,817,271.00
Summary
Heart disease is more frequent and occurs at an earlier age in men than women. The reason is unknown. Apart from obesity and associated disturbances of metabolism, changes in sex hormones such as testosterone, together with the effects of inflammation may be important, and may in turn be affected by environment, lifestyle behaviours, and stress. To untangle these relationships, we will use cutting edge technology, in a large sample of men, in partnership with other international scientists.
To Improve The Quality And Access To Dialysis Treatments By Indigenous Australians From Remote Areas By Using A Patient-centred Approach To Determine The Cost-effectiveness Of Treatment Models That Include The Health, Social And Economic Impact
Funder

Funding Amount
$1,195,023.00
Summary
Compared to other Australians, Indigenous people from remote areas suffer disproportionately from kidney disease. In order to access treatment they must often relocate, sometimes permanently to urban areas. Communities advocate for services closer to home but most health providers see remote area delivery as prohibitively costly. The study will assess the relative cost-benefits of more patient-centered models of care that are inclusive of impacts on patients, families and communities.

The extent and debilitating nature of Indigenous mental health problems has been widely documented. National and community benefits will derive from the development of strategies enabling psychologists to work more effectively with Indigenous clients to improve their psychological and social well-being and resolve mental health problems. The project will identify how psychologists currently work with Indigenous clients, which will provide data to guide the development of effective strategies to bring about change.Read moreRead less

Summary
There is increasing recognition of a societal responsibility to provide effective and sustainable health care to the entire population and not just to selected parts. Indigenous and regional Australians are most affected by Australia's biggest killer - heart disease. In response, the CRE to Reduce Inequality in Heart Disease, is a national collaboration of researchers from a range of health disciplines.

The impact of insecure residency on adaptation of refugees in Australia. This project will conduct a longitudinal investigation of the psychosocial adaptation of refugees with insecure and secure residency over a period of three years. This project will identify longitudinal trajectories of adaptation in refugees with insecure and secure residency, investigate flashpoints where refugees’ psychological adaptation deteriorates or improves, and investigate psychological mechanisms underpinning adaptation pathways. Findings could significantly advance knowledge about the adaptation of refugees and help refugees to make a positive social and economic contribution to Australia.Read moreRead less
Sexual health and relationships in young Indigenous people. Despite higher notified rates of sexually transmissible infections and blood borne viruses and often negative depictions of young indigenous people, very little is known of the health and well being of young Indigenous people. This project will for the first time provide a national profile of risk behaviours, levels of knowledge and the types of health services young Indigenous people access for sexual health and blood borne viruses.

Despite higher notified rates of sexually transmissible infections and blood borne viruses and often negative depictions of young indigenous people, very little is known of the health and well being of young Indigenous people. This project will for the first time provide a national profile of risk behaviours, levels of knowledge and the types of health services young Indigenous people access for sexual health and blood borne viruses. The findings of this research will set the foundations for a longer term strategy to ensure trends and behaviours can be identified among the population and where necessary interventions can be implemented.

This project aims to study advanced harmonic analysis concerning multiparameter theory and related topics. Harmonic analysis lies at the intersection of the frontiers of many branches of mathematics. It is fundamental to the study of operator theory and partial differential equations which has wide applications in many fields such as mathematical modelling, probability and number theory. This project aims to solve a number of open problems at the frontier of research in modern harmonic analysis including estimates on multilinear operators with nonsmooth kernels and advanced multiparameter theory on product spaces.Read moreRead less
Harmonic analysis: function spaces and singular integral operators. This project advances knowledge in harmonic analysis to new settings such as dyadic and multiparameter theories, Laplacian-like operators, and rough singular integrals. Outcomes will be solutions to long-standing problems, training of researchers, strong links with international researchers and enhancement of Australia's reputation in mathematics.

The Network will facilitate research outcomes which position, improve, empower and encourage Indigenous self-management of the research agenda. Integral to this is the ongoing development and support of Indigenous researchers as a key focus of the collective harnessing and promotion of positive research training best practice.Read moreRead less

This project aims to track three significant Songlines and the intersecting and interconnected cultural relationships between northwest NSW Aboriginal language groups, and their neighbouring language groups northeast of the Darling River and northwest into northeast SA and the Corner Country. Indigenous oral history methodologies will provide a dynamic, rich and deep cultural knowledge and history of each site. The project is of major importance to Indigenous Communities in NSW, SA and QLD and will also develop the wider public’s understanding of Aboriginal history and culture. In particular, the project seeks to emphasise that Aboriginal stories are not myths and legends and are more than ‘stories’ simply understood. Aboriginal stories are lore and provide deep insight into the history of the Australian continent.Read moreRead less
