My research program addresses tuberculosis and rheumatic heart disease, which are leading challenges for Northern Australia and our region. Both are diseases caused by infections with long-term complications. They cause illness and death in young Aboriginal people and neighbouring Southeast Asian populations. There are many gaps in our ability to effectively detect and prevent these diseases. My research targets these gaps, from cutting-edge science to translation of guidelines into practice.

我的研究项目涉及结核病和风湿性心脏病，这是北澳大利亚和我们地区面临的主要挑战。这两种疾病都是由感染引起的，并伴有长期并发症。它们在年轻的土著居民和邻近的东南亚人口中造成疾病和死亡。在我们有效发现和预防这些疾病的能力方面存在许多差距。我的研究针对这些差距，从前沿科学到将指导方针转化为实践。
