🌍 Anaemia is a preventable yet widespread health issue in low-income regions, especially among pregnant women and young children. Our clinical trials in Bangladesh & Malawi are focused on finding new solutions to improve maternal and child health. 🧵 wehi.edu.au/research/clini…

Intravenous iron given in the second trimester of pregnancy impacts on anaemia and iron-deficiency all the way up to 6-12 months postpartum! Another stellar collaboration between WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute) and @TRUECOM1 - The Lancet Global Health thelancet.com/journals/langl…

Our very own Sant-Rayn Pasricha this year served as scientific co-chair of the ASH meeting 2024! Congrats for putting together an awesome meeting and the awesome overview at best of ASH! ASH

It was a tremendous honour to present Best of #ASH24 for ASH with Jennifer Trowbridge. Many thanks to my colleages BioIronSocial and teams at WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute) & The Royal Melbourne Hospital for their support.

I am looking for a research assistant to join my new lab in Melbourne, Australia at WEHI. Please apply at the link below! tinyurl.com/4wkt2jve

What an incredible dynamic duo combatting #anaemia in #pregnancy while building a lasting collaboration between WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute), @TRUECOM1 and Melbourne School of Population and Global Health.

A study has found a single iron infusion can significantly reduce anaemia in pregnancy, compared to iron tablets – the currently recommended treatment. The milestone findings, co-led by Sant-Rayn Pasricha and Kamija Phiri are published in Nature Medicine wehi.edu.au/news/healthier…

Study by WEHI researchers shows how the body boosts iron in pregnancy to aid blood & baby growth. The body lowers hepcidin, the key iron regulator, with help from the Tmprss6 gene. Disruptions could impact foetal growth. Published in 🩸: ashpublications.org/blood/article/…
