A world-first study from The Kids for Child Health Research has identified risk factors for receptive language development in Australian children.
The Kids for Child Health Research will join more than 50 scientists from 36 research institutions around the world to improve early nutrition
Head of nutrition research at Perth's The Kids for Child Health Research named in the nation's top 10 health and medical researchers for 2010.
Link between healthy growth in the womb and improved numeracy and literacy skills in early primary school.
The health of Australia's children depends on a firm national commitment to implement the comprehensive strategy outlined by the Preventative Health Taskforce.
For the first time, the Australian Early Development Index (AEDI) has been completed nationally, giving Australia a snapshot of young children's development.
New research findings from the world's largest study predicting children's late language emergence has revealed that parents are not to blame for late talking
A ground breaking study of WA 5-year olds has found that more than a quarter of the children have developmental difficulties that could have life-long impacts.
Every child deserves the best possible start in life. Evidence demonstrates the period from pre-birth to three years is a vital period of development. It lays the foundations for a child’s future and has life-long impacts on health, education, job opportunities, social inclusion and wellbeing.
Childhood is a critical period of immune development. During this time, naïve CD4 T cells undergo programmed cell differentiation, mediated by epigenetic changes, in response to external stimuli leading to a baseline homeostatic state that may determine lifelong disease risk. However, the ontogeny of epigenetic signatures associated with CD4 T cell activation during key developmental periods are yet to be described.
