Researchers: A/Pr Gillian Nixon (Principal investigator)

Brief description Disorders of breathing during sleep affect over 1.5 million children in the Australian community and have negative impacts on cognitive functioning, behaviour and quality of life. Early identification and treatment is paramount to optimise the health of these children. My research focuses on prompt identification and appropriate treatment of breathing disorders during sleep, to enhance health care outcomes for individuals and health service provision.
