Optimising respiratory care of the preterm infant using regional volumetric strategies [ 2017 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: A/Pr David Tingay (Principal investigator)

Brief description Preterm birth is defined by the fragile under-developed lung needing to engage in air-breathing. Most preterm babies need respiratory support, but used inappropriately these life-saving therapies can increase the risk of long-term lung injury. This Fellowship will support a program designed to generate clinically meaningful outcomes through molecular, translational and clinical studies founded on strong physiological and biological principles and innovative research techniques.
