Gene Profiling To Develop A Neuroprotective Strategy In A Large Animals Model Of Following Ischaemic Stroke.

Funding Amount
$359,897.00
Summary
Stroke affects 15 million people worldwide each year. At present, the diagnosis and treatment of stroke is not optimal. The use of gene profiling may provide us with information that could allow us to more accurately identify individuals at risk of stroke, predict stroke outcome and effectively treat stroke patients. In addition, by using a targeted approach to therapy we have the potential to reduce brain swelling and improve outcome following stroke with neuroprotective agents.
Substance Misuse And Mental Disorders In A Remote Arnhem Land And Urban New South Wales Aboriginal Population
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$320,972.00
Summary
Experience of trauma and violence affect one in four Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians and can put them at risk of later mental illness or substance misuse. This Fellowship investigates the prevalence of post traumatic stress disorder and its association with substance misuse among Indigenous Australians in a remote and urban setting. Better understanding these associations will help in designing interventions to reduce individual and community suffering.

Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$372,451.00
Summary
People who are forcibly displaced from their homes due to conflict, disaster or state-sanctioned deportation are vulnerable to substance use. My fellowship focuses on deportees on the US-Mexico border and refugees in Australia. I will address key knowledge and evidence gaps regarding the complex relationships between forced migration and substance use, informing the development of targeted public health responses to reduce the prevalence and consequences of substance use among these populations
