Australian Paediatrics Surveillance Unit: A Collaborative Network For Child Health Research
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$1,254,500.00
Summary
The proposed Facility will formalise a collaborative, national network of organisations to enable the conduct and dissemination of research on serious child health conditions. The Facility will provide a reliable, accessible, unique mechanism for national research that is aligned with national priorities and addresses knowledge gaps. It will disseminate that research widely to inform clinical practice, policy, prevention programs, resource allocation, the community and health professionals.
The Australian Twin Registry (ATR) is a volunteer registry of over 30,000 twin pairs willing to consider participation in health research. This national resource was established in the 1980s with NHMRC support because twin studies play a unique, powerful role in research on the impact of genetic and environmental factors on health. Over 400 studies have benefited. The ATR seeks on-going funding to remain internationally competitive and meet increasing demand due to advances in genetic research.
