Information is accumulating which implicates airway inflammation resulting from respiratory viral infections, acting against a background of atopy.
In partnership with Derbarl Yerrigan Health Service and the Broome Regional Aboriginal Medical Service, we aim to improve Aboriginal lung health by determining for the first time the baseline lung function of Aboriginal Australians.
Healthy lungs help you to breathe better. This means you can sleep better, as well as play sports, run and walk without being short winded.
Large numbers of children need emergency medical treatment each year for respiratory illnesses, particularly for wheezing and asthma.
This study is designed to identify the specific unique immune cell response that occurs in these children with recurrent disease.
Studies in Europe show exposure of pregnant women to high levels of microbial products stimulate immune function maturation in their offspring
The study aims to identify the mechanism for this so that this knowledge can be used to better treat asthma and allergies in both males and females.
This project investigates how cells of the immune system respond to substances to cause allergies to help develop new treatments.

People living with asthma, their carers, clinicians and policymakers are the end-users of research and need research that address their individual healthcare needs. We aimed to understand the research priorities of end-users of asthma research.
