Closing the gap in Indigenous Lung Health

土著人和托雷斯海峡岛民儿童的呼吸道疾病非常普遍，对澳大利亚土著人造成长期影响。因此，预防和/或早期治疗可能会改变儿童的肺部健康生活轨迹。与布里斯班、悉尼、新西兰和美国的主要研究人员合作，我们将开展最有可能改善土著儿童肺部健康结果的适当临床研究（治疗和预防）。我们将着重加强土著人民和最终用户的参与。

Respiratory illness in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children is very common with long term consequences in Indigenous Australians. Thus prevention and/or early treatment potentially change the child’s life trajectory for lung health. Partnering key researchers in Brisbane, Sydney, New Zealand and USA, we will undertake appropriate clinical studies (treatment and preventative) that are most likely to improve lung health outcomes in young Indigenous children. We will focus on increasing participation of Indigenous people and end-users.
