[Lead] Prof Bruce Robinson [Institution] University of Western Australia [Description] Pulmonary/environmental health problems represent an enormous health cost in Australia. This consortium brings together a group of clinicians and scientists with strong track records in clinical, laboratory and epidemiological research into some of the most important pulmonary/ environmental disorders. These include lung diseases caused by occupational exposure to environmental agents, such as asbestos and asthma-inducing chemicals, as well as non-occupational diseases caused or exacerbated by environmental agents, such as allergic asthma and cigarette-induced lung diseases. We will develop a program of training, research and treatment that will improve health care in these important disease areas. [CCRE]
