The presentation is based on research for the \u201cStrong Foundations\u201d project and an evidence paper \u201c<em>Getting it right in the first 1000 days<\/em>\u201d.\u00a0 Strong Foundations is a partnership created to develop a robust evidential foundation to support strong and targeted investments in the health and wellbeing of Australia\u2019s children. This Grand Round examines what is now known about the nature of development during the first 1000 days, and the experiences and exposures that impact on all aspects of development and functioning, including health and wellbeing, mental health, social functioning, and cognitive development. The evidence is derived from a wide range of disciplines: genetics, epigenetics, microbiology, epidemiology and sociology. During this Grand Rounds, Dr Moore will share the findings and some of the implications of this research.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Speaker:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr Tim Moore<\/strong> is Senior Research Fellow, Murdoch Children\u2019s Research Institute; Manager, Research and Policy Team, Centre for Community Child Health; Senior Fellow, Department of Paediatrics, University of Melbourne.\u00a0 Tim heads a Research and Policy team at MCRI, with responsibility for monitoring, reviewing and synthesising research on a wide range of topics relating to child development, family functioning and service systems.
