Understanding and Improving Treatment of Premature Infants to Improve Long Term Outcomes

在过去的20年里，早产儿护理取得了许多重要进展，但我们的知识仍然存在重大差距。在该奖学金期间在临床前和临床环境中进行的研究将增强对早产儿疾病复杂性质的理解。此外，我们将开发和评估新的治疗方法，促进早产儿的生长和发育，以优化他们的长期智力，身体，情感和社会成果。

The last 2 decades heralded many important advances in the care of preterm infants but important gaps in our knowledge remain. Studies undertaken in the preclinical and clinical settings during this Fellowship will enhance understanding of the complex nature of disease in preterm infants. Further, we will develop and evaluate new treatments that enhance growth and development of the premature baby to optimise their long term intellectual, physical, emotional and social outcomes.
