Funded Activity Summary

Globally the burden of chronic disease is enormous. Smoking, risky alcohol use, inadequate fruit and vegetable intake and physical inactivity are modifiable risk factors of chronic conditions. This fellowship aims to prevent chronic diseases in priority populations who have poorer health outcomes including disadvantaged groups, those living in regional and remote areas and people born overseas by implementing and evaluating scalable health behaviour interventions to improve health outcomes.
