Breastfeeding, nutrition and the healthcare environment.

In this recorded episode of COSMOS Science City, our panel of researchers discuss issues relating to breastfeeding and nutrition, parental care, and the health care environment.

Recorded during World Breastfeeding Week, the panel talk about their broad range of research interests including breastfeeding and preterm infants, pregnancy outcomes for women with obesity, digital health capabilities, and the importance of community education and advocates for women to be well-informed about how to take control of their own breast health.

Content in this discussion could be used to support educator professional learning or to further student knowledge, helping broaden understanding of the study and career pathways available to students once they have completed their secondary schooling journey.
