The veteran tuberculosis vaccine BCG has puzzled scientists for decades. Now, The Kids researchers have not only unlocked part of the secret to its success in saving the lives of newborns, but they’re at the forefront of global efforts to test its ability to fight COVID-19.

Kids born with Down syndrome are at high risk of an array of health problems – including issues with sight, hearing, heart defects, bone complications, immune disorders and learning difficulties.

A new rapid research funding model is translating into quick results.

Perth researchers discovered a naturally occurring virus living in the city’s waterways that could potentially fight antibiotic-resistant superbugs.

Wiping out childhood ear infections could become a reality thanks to new research identifying the main bacteria responsible for recurrent ear infections and repeat ear surgeries.

A number of organisations have created COVID-19 resources specifically developed for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

Bhutan has achieved a substantial reduction in both malaria morbidity and mortality over the last two decades and is aiming for malaria elimination certification in 2025.

Western societal norms have long been constrained by binary and exclusionary perspectives on matters such as infertility, contraception, sexual health, sexuality, and gender. These viewpoints have shaped research and knowledge frameworks for decades and led to an inaccurate and incomplete reproductive biology curriculum. To combat these deficiencies in reproductive systems-related education, our teaching team undertook a gradual transformation of unit content from 2018 to 2023, aiming to better reflect real diversity in human reproductive biology.
