Improving child health outcomes in common, high burden conditions. [ 2014 - 2017 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Prof Harriet Hiscock (Principal investigator)

Brief description As medical advances over the past 50 years have helped to reduce traditional childhood illnesses such as infections, behavioural, developmental and mental health problems have increased. These problems affect at least 1 in 5 Australian children yet the vast majority of problems go undetected and untreated. I propose to develop, trial and disseminate evidence-based approaches to common child health problems including mental health and sleep problems.
