Our Q&A starts now...

Had the best time talking #scicomm!

A great reminder that we need to make our science accessible to the public. We #immunologists are notorious for making our field so full of jargon! The fastest way to lose your audience is to start with "I study CD8+CD69hiCD103+CD44+CD49a+ TRM". #scicomm

Really enjoyed presenting our work on intrauterine inflammation and it's effects on the neural control of breathing Thanks Australasian Neuroscience Society (ANS) for a wonderful meeting! #ANS2019 #AusNeuro2019

Great first step! Parents of sick & preterm babies allowed to use ~30 days of their 12month unpaid leave entitlement up to the child's 2nd birthday & claim part of their 18week PPL during this time. The next step is to extend PPL by 1 week for every week a baby is born too soon

A world-first study led by Monash has shown skin-to-skin "kangaroo care" has significant benefits for a premature baby’s heart and brain function. It's a welcome find for new mums this Mother’s Day. mona.sh/JcGQ30qEgqd Image: Kyhala Dunn with her twins Oscar and Amelia

Do you care for babies born at 22-25 weeks' gestation? Are you a parent of a baby born this early? If so, please see our draft guidance for the management of extremely preterm births- now open for public review and feedback for 4 weeks PSANZ PSANZ ECR PSANZ IMPACT PSANZ - CAP

The draft Safer Care Victoria guideline for extremely preterm birth from 22-25 weeks' gestation is open for public feedback for the next 4 weeks. You can view the documents and give your views on the website below.

Hi #AcademicTwitter. A question to anyone involved in running Clinical Trials: Has anyone managed to successfully administer cognitive tests (traditionally paper-pencil measures) virtually? Thanks in advance! #AcademicChat #clinicaltrials

Chest compressions on the cord can effectively restore spontaneous circulation, and may be neuroprotective if PBCC is suitably prolonged. The latest from our merry band of preclinical asphyxia researchers, led by Graeme Polglase. The Ritchie Centre Monash University School of Clinical Sciences frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

New study from our research team shows that the timing of umbilical cord clamping matters when providing cardiopulmonary resuscitation to asystolic newborns
