Improving the Health and Development of High risk Preterm Newborns

早产儿比足月出生的孩子有更多的健康和发育问题。尽管我们知道那些最微小和最不成熟的人面临的问题，但更多的问题仍然存在。作为成年人，他们面临着哪些问题？有哪些新的治疗方法可以改善他们的结果？更“成熟”的早产是否也面临风险？我的研究项目旨在通过维多利亚婴儿合作研究团队的努力来解决这些问题，这是我领导的一个大型研究团队。

Preterm children have more health and developmental problems than those born full term. Although we know the problems faced by those tiniest and most immature, more questions remain. What problems do they face as adults? What new treatments are available to improve their outcomes? Are the more “mature” preterms at risk as well? My research program aims to address these questions through the efforts of the Victorian Infant Collaborative Study team, a large research team that I lead.
