Improving the care of children who suffer from acute infectious illness: 

  1. Management of paediatric gastroenteritis - ondansetron, probiotics & outcomes research
  2. Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli infection - rehydration therapy, hemolytic uremic syndrome, prevention
  3. SARS-CoV-2 – epidemiology, clinical phenotypes, asymptomatic transmission

Through the conduct of collaborative, multidisciplinary, multi-centre research and translation of the knowledge gained into improved clinical care, the goals are to develop and ensure that children receive the best available evidence-based care for the treatment of acute childhood infectious illnesses.
