Grant Activity:
Optimising Respiratory Therapies to Improve Outcomes for Preterm Infants
Purpose:

Preterm birth is the leading cause of newborn deaths worldwide. The smallest, sickest babies are born extremely preterm before 28 weeks’ gestation; 50% of survivors develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), the chronic lung disease of prematurity. BPD is associated with worse long-term respiratory health and neurodevelopmental outcomes. My research aims to increase survival and reduce morbidity in preterm infants by finding new therapies to prevent BPD, and improving early respiratory supports.
