Modelling Inequalities in Health in Australia in the Area of Obesity

这项研究将有助于知识的身体，通知政府政策和福尔斯属于国家研究重点-促进和保持良好的健康。肥胖是澳大利亚成年人的一个严重健康问题，如果不加以控制，情况可能会恶化。解决这一问题的首要任务是确定谁处于危险之中。在这个项目中，我们将使用多种强大的技术来研究这个问题。因此，我们的研究将有助于将公共资源用于那些真正受益的人，因为我们假设健康市场由于多种原因而无法有效清除。

This research will contribute to a body of knowledge that informs government policy and falls under a National Research Priority - Promoting and Maintaining Good Health. Obesity is a serious health problem among adult Australians and the situation is likely to worsen if left unchecked. The first task in addressing this issue is to identify who is at risk. In this project we will use multiple and robust techniques to examine this issue. Our research will therefore help in targeting public resources to those that can really benefit, as we hypothesise markets in health do not clear efficiently for a multitude of reasons.
