Early-life immune development is a critical factor in predicting the risk of childhood respiratory infections, asthma, and poor vaccine responses. Identifying immune endotypes that predispose children to these conditions could lead to the development of predictive biomarkers and early interventions, potentially improving long-term health outcomes.

Asthma researchers at Perth's The Kids for Child Health Research are developing a world first system for predicting the severity of asthma in children

Scientists at The Kids for Child Health Research have launched an innovative project to test the relationship between stress and asthma.

Western Australia has joined a major international study that could significantly change the treatment of asthma in children.

This study is designed to identify the specific unique immune cell response that occurs in these children with recurrent disease.

Studies in Europe show exposure of pregnant women to high levels of microbial products stimulate immune function maturation in their offspring

The study aims to identify the mechanism for this so that this knowledge can be used to better treat asthma and allergies in both males and females.

This project investigates how cells of the immune system respond to substances to cause allergies to help develop new treatments.
