New research digs deeper into how children's immune systems handle viral challenges
A study published in Science Advances has revealed that while genetics play a significant role in shaping children's immune systems, environmental factors also influence key immune responses, offering opportunity for preventing allergic diseases.

Leading the fight against Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) in Western Australia.
Meet the team at Phage WA, who are working to tackle antimicrobial resistance (AMR) through phage therapy.
Our team uses AI to quickly analyse large amounts of genetic data to help discover alternate medications and improve existing treatments.

The marked heterogeneity in cystic fibrosis (CF) disease complicates the selection of those most likely to benefit from existing or emergent treatments. We aimed to predict the progression of bronchiectasis in preschool children with CF.
The airway epithelium of children with wheeze is characterized by defective repair that contributes to disease pathobiology. Dysregulation of developmental processes controlled by Notch has been identified in chronic asthma. However, its role in airway epithelial cells of young children with wheeze, particularly during repair, is yet to be determined.
