Funded Activity Summary

Indigenous Australian women are at high risk of having GDM which increases the risk of developing both GDM in future pregnancies and T2DM. We want to clarify these risks and whether there are differences between Indigenous and non-Indigenous women. Ideally, we can intervene to prevent this cycle of disease as diabetes in pregnancy has long term poor health outcomes for both mothers and their offspring.
