Neonatal respiratory care

Research activity includes less invasive surfactant administration and premedication strategies for newborns with respiratory distress syndrome, with attention to safety and tolerance of procedural care.

  • Surfactant treatment
  • Ketamine and fentanyl premedication
  • Adverse event reduction

The clinical focus is on neonatal support in intensive care settings and the optimisation of respiratory interventions.

Cardiometabolic health

Trials examine the relationship between glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism, and cardiovascular function, with interest in metabolic and vascular risk profiles.

  • Metabolic syndrome
  • Cardiovascular disease risk factors
  • Cardiovascular function

Research in this area addresses interconnected metabolic and cardiovascular pathways relevant to chronic disease prevention.

Endocrine and metabolic pharmacology

Investigation extends to roxadustat and its effects on cardiometabolism, reflecting interest in treatments that may influence systemic metabolic regulation.

  • Glucose regulation
  • Lipid regulation
  • Cardiovascular effects

The therapeutic scope includes metabolic responses and cardiovascular outcomes linked to pharmacological intervention.

Women’s health and contraception

Clinical research covers combined contraceptives and progestin-only approaches, including evaluation in women with polycystic ovary syndrome and assessment of coagulation-related effects.

  • Contraception
  • Coagulation
  • Polycystic ovary syndrome

Interest is centred on hormonal therapies, thrombotic risk markers, and reproductive endocrinology.
