Research Centre for Reproductive Health

The Research Centre for Reproductive Health was established in April 2004, with the following key agendas:

Research Centre for The Early Origins of Health and Disease

The EOHaD is a leader in the investigation of the intergenerational and perinatal origins of metabolic, cardiovascular, neurological and reproductive health in postnatal life. Research aims to identify both:

• "What can have an effect?": How events in early life, including previous generations, can influence key aspects of our health

AND

• "What can we do?": Factors that can be modified during early life (and how they can be integrated into clinical and public health interventions) in order to promote health and minimise disease in later life and generations

Centre for Stem Cell Research

The centre for Stem Cell Research uses research and knowledge in stem cells with an ultimate goal of generating applications in such areas as:

Australian Research Centre for Health of Women & Babies

ARCH is a world leader in maternal and perinatal research. Our research benefits women and babies by:

• Answering questions of major importance in the field of maternal and perinatal health, across the spectrum from preconception, through pregnancy and childbirth, infancy and later life;
• Generating research evidence of the highest quality that promotes the best health possible for all women and their babies;
• Ensuring that research findings are incorporated into health care practice;
• Increasing capacity in research synthesis, randomised trials and implementation and translational research through career development and education, locally, nationally, and internationally; and
• Strengthening our existing collaborations and identifying new international, national and regional collaborations.
