Current breastfeeding perspectives, delivering research to support practice : Hear breastfeeding mothers share current perspectives with leading UWA academics who will discuss how research helps address challenges Other events...
Protection of breastfeeding is a shared responsibility. It is widely quoted that it takes an average of 17 years for just 14% of research to reach patient care. Discoveries from researchers at The University of Western Australia over the last 50 years have transformed our understanding of how breastfeeding works and a new Lactology course has been developed to share this knowledge.

Hear breastfeeding mothers share current perspectives and challenges relating to what they wish they knew about breastfeeding. Three leading human lactation researchers from UWA will share how understanding the science regarding how breastfeeding works can help to address these challenges.
Speaker(s) Dr Melinda Boss, Professor Donna Geddes and Professor Valerie Verhasselt
