Three researchers from IHT have received $6.1 million in funding from the Federal Government’s Medical Research Future Fund #MRFF leading potentially groundbreaking and life-changing health research projects. @AnnaUgalde_@DrCindyNeedham@BodilRasmussen4deakin.au/3OEAvUb

Love @allendersteve’s approach to supporting healthier diets “we meet the community wherever they are… if we want this to be a healthier place for kids to live, what does it need to look like… let’s make healthy easy and normal” #NationalHealthCheck

Together with @VACCHO_org, we're thrilled to launch the Aboriginal Data and Action on Prevention Together (ADAPT) Report. The report summarises findings from a recent IHT @GLOBE_obesity study, which surveyed approx. 3000 primary school children in Victoria. (1/3)
Access to blue space, such as coasts, lakes and rivers, was associated with favourable health outcomes, in a new study from our @GLOBE_obesity domain. Read more here: bit.ly/37wD1cx
