Aboriginal Advisory Committee - Kids Easy Breathing Study

We are looking for Aboriginal parents who are passionate about lung health to join the Aboriginal Advisory Committee (AAC) for our Kids Easy Breathing Study (KEBS). Research shows 1 in 5 Aboriginal* bubs in hospital for bronchiolitis (a common viral chest infection) later had serious damage to their lungs. The aim of our study is to find out why Aboriginal bubbies are more likely to develop long-term lung sickness.
