BIS Primary School Review
We have come a long way, with our eldest participants now turning 8 years old! Thank you again for the time and effort you have already contributed. Without your support, this world-class project would not be possible.
We have been awarded three separate National Health and Medical Research (NHMRC) Project grants to conduct the BIS Primary School Review. These awards cover the immune, respiratory, neurodevelopmental and cardiovascular components of the project.
Each family is a vital part of a project that is genuinely important. We will do our best to honour your contribution by continuing to make discoveries that improve the health of our children.
We plan to commence the BIS Primary School Review in the coming months. With help from the Gandel Foundation and Jayco, we have built a mobile laboratory – the BIS Bus. We will be seeking permission from BIS families and local primaries to review the kids at school, which will substantially reduce the participation burden placed on parents.
We can’t wait to see all the BIS babies as big school children over the coming years and the team are very excited to be rolling out the next wave of BIS.
