This research seeks to understand why a minority of children are prone to severe and often life-threatening infections and inflammation. It focusses on infections both in preterm infants and in later childhood, which may also be relevant to understanding atherosclerosis. I am also interested in improving the health of recently arrived refugees, by conducting research that allows the development of evidence-based health interventions and developing national policy on refugee health.

这项研究试图了解为什么少数儿童容易发生严重的、往往危及生命的感染和炎症。它集中在早产儿和儿童后期的感染上，这可能也与理解动脉粥样硬化有关。我还对改善新到难民的健康状况感兴趣，方法是开展研究，以便制定循证健康干预措施，并制定难民健康国家政策。
