The Kids Research team at Sydney Children’s Hospitals Network is redefining paediatric healthcare with groundbreaking ‘bench to bedside’ research that transforms discoveries into life-changing treatments. Embedded within Sydney Children’s Hospital, Randwick, and The Children’s Hospital at Westmead, over 600 experts work tirelessly to pioneer safer, less invasive therapies tailored to the unique needs of children. Through their global collaborations, Kids Research has developed cutting-edge diagnostics, initiated hundreds of clinical trials, and unlocked insights that have reshaped care for children worldwide.
Accelerating Hope
On average, it takes 17 years for research to translate into clinical care – that’s an entire childhood. Sydney Children’s Hospitals Foundation is helping to fast-track this process, ensuring discoveries benefit children sooner.
Your support could help fuel:
Together, we can shorten the path from lab to life-saving care, giving sick kids and their families more time, better outcomes, and a brighter future.
Projects and discoveries underway
Supported by Hearts and Minds, Kids Critical Care Research has progressed a strategic plan of research to harness big data, biobanking, innovative trial designs, and long term neurodevelopmental outcomes to inform care of children with critical illness requiring intensive care admission.
