Today is submitted my third research grant application in 6 months focusing on using donor breastmilk to improve outcomes for babies in neonatal care.

Such a privilege to be working so closely with the Northwest human milk bank and their amazing donors

Had a lovely time today talking to the @salforduni midwifery students about my research in maternal and fetal health, from placentas to breastmilk, bench to bedside and how they can engage with research to help care for women and babies

Really engaging group of students!

I've been successful in the lastest BRIC Funding Call & gained funding to further our work into understanding the immunology of human breast milk

Goal to see whether some individuals breastmilk could boost immunity and prevent complications in neonatal care

What does #diabetes tech really mean?

Gracie has gone from "The diabetic child" to just "a child" (who happens to be diabetic)

Diabetes will not stop her doing anything - whether interviewing celebrities, making tackles to help her football team or just be her abnormal self
