Optimising Future Human Health by Optimising Birth Outcomes

获奖者史密斯教授因其对人类怀孕的研究和对土著产妇保健的贡献而获得AM奖。他的研究在过去五年中得到了极大的扩展，包括死产、怀孕期间的病毒感染、肾脏疾病的早期检测、靶向纳米颗粒的开发，用于将治疗药物输送到子宫，以及数据链接以测试产前护理的影响。他的研究旨在优化孕妇及其孩子的健康。

Laureate Professor Smith received an AM for his research on human pregnancy and contributions to Indigenous maternal health. His research has dramatically expanded in the last 5 years to include stillbirth, viral infections during pregnancy, early detection of renal disease, the development of targeted nanoparticles for delivery of therapeutics to the uterus, and data-linkage to test the impact of antenatal care. His research seeks to optimise the health of pregnant women and their children.
