Understanding and Improving Treatment of Premature Infants to Improve Long Term Outcomes [ 2015 - 2019 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: A/Pr Jane Pillow (Principal investigator)

Brief description The last 2 decades heralded many important advances in the care of preterm infants but important gaps in our knowledge remain. Studies undertaken in the preclinical and clinical settings during this Fellowship will enhance understanding of the complex nature of disease in preterm infants. Further, we will develop and evaluate new treatments that enhance growth and development of the premature baby to optimise their long term intellectual, physical, emotional and social outcomes.
