Every Thursday: Discussion & Technical Seminar Series

Improving health outcomes for pregnant women with allergic asthma and their babies: Thursday 22nd May.

Childhood asthma targeted in new research

New research aimed at reducing the airway damage caused by asthma attacks in children has just begun at The Kids for Child Health Research in WA.

Trying to beat asthma caused by exercise

Professor Graham Hall is leading a study looking at exercise-related asthma in young children, and we need volunteers to take part.

Telethon Institute research provides new insights into the cause of asthma attacks

Telethon Institute for Child Health Research scientist Dr Anthony Bosco has been recognised for his cutting edge research investigating asthma attacks

Pharmacological ablation of the airway smooth muscle layer—Mathematical predictions of functional improvement in asthma

Findings provide further proof of concept that pharmacological targeting of airway smooth muscle thickness will be beneficial and may be facilitated by azithromycin

Airway Epithelial Cell Immunity Is Delayed During Rhinovirus Infection in Asthma and COPD

We propose that propensity for viral exacerbations of asthma and COPD relate to delayed expression of epithelial cell innate anti-viral immune genes

Systems biology and big data in asthma and allergy: recent discoveries and emerging challenges

We describe recent "omic"-level findings, and examine how these findings have been systematically integrated to generate further insight

Could home-based FeNO measurements breathe new life into asthma management?

Developing a FeNO test that is affordable enough to allow daily measurements, patients will be able to access quantifiable data to assist them to monitor their asthma

Epigenome-wide meta-analysis of DNA methylation and childhood asthma

Novel loci differentially methylated in newborns represent potential biomarkers of risk of asthma by school age

Bronchodilator responsiveness in children with asthma is not influenced by spacer device selection

Spacer device was not associated with clinically important differences in lung function following bronchodilator inhalation in children with asthma
