Exciting moment at #TFBS2024! Dr. Jonathan Morris, renowned OBGYN expert, takes the stage. Key takeaways:

Build robust perinatal networks
Antenatal steroids for all preterm births
Delayed cord clamping saves lives

Advancing perinatal care! #PerinatalCare #NeonatalHealth #OBGYN

[Australian Preterm Birth Prevention Alliance @PretermAlliance]

200 delegates. 50 of Australia's maternity hospitals. 1 shared goal-to safely prevent preterm & early term birth. An activation of this scale is truly humbling & the #EveryWeekCounts National Collaborative thanks all that are on this important journey with us #maternity #preterm

[Australian Preterm Birth Prevention Alliance @PretermAlliance]

Alliance Chair & Deputy Chair, Prof John Newnham and Prof @jthanmorris welcome the more than 200 representatives from 50 of Australia’s maternity hospitals that have gathered in Sydney for the Every Week Counts National Preterm Birth Prevention Collaborative.

Terrific initiative: a small but important recognition of pregnancy loss. Private sector will you follow?NSW becomes first state to introduce paid miscarriage leave for public sector employees https://t.co/DP02hp84RA via @SBSNews

Sat down with Prof @jthanmorris AM, Director of Women & Babies Research at @NthSydHealth @KollingINST & Ashlee Tenberge, @MultipleBirths Chair to record latest episode of @north_fndn podcast discussing impact of premature delivery & twins research trends. https://t.co/q2riwCSfXk

[Jonathan Morris @jthanmorris]

Recently I was asked to talk to the topic “first do no harm” at the RANZCOG ASM - another example of change in practice with possible unintended harms? https://t.co/9oAyqq0Emp

[Jonathan Morris @jthanmorris]

The importance of looking for answers in times of grief. @CREStillbirth https://t.co/z3S1sKmbeh

[Jonathan Morris @jthanmorris]

Pregnancy and Infant Loss and Remembrance Day - thinking of parents for whom family gatherings are never complete. Thank you for supporting research to help prevent the pain https://t.co/PHzfhcz9fq

[Gilbert Lorquet @GilbertLorquet]

@north_fndn Thank you Victoria and Danny for sharing your personal story and supporting @jthanmorris in his quest to identify the presence of bacterial infection in late pregnancies. #PregnancyandInfantLoss #kollinginstitute #medicalresearch #northfoundation

[Jonathan Morris @jthanmorris]

How can we best prevent the grief of such unfathomable depth felt by parents whose baby is stillborn? Please consider donating to Stillbirth Foundation Australia so essential research can be funded. Sadly this year there will be 2200 reasons why... https://t.co/1Vl8lCHcI7

[Jonathan Morris @jthanmorris]

A situation that is at odds with the “new Australian accounting standards” - at a time when the entire globe is looking for research to lead them out of a crisis how can we treat those who ply that trade so poorly

[The Australian Society for Medical Research (ASMR) @TheASMR1]

Did you know: When a research grant is awarded, the administering institution has to find an extra 20-40% of the value of the grant to cover overheads, simply so the research can proceed? The Job-Ready Bill removes the source of this overhead funding.

That's catastrophic (1/6👇)

[Jonathan Morris @jthanmorris]

Significant practice change has occurred here on the strength of assumed short term benefit - use of late gestation steroids should be restricted to clinical trials until long term harms are excluded @DrKatieGroom

[Jim Thornton @jimgthornton]

A change from Covid. Data on neurodev outcomes of steroid-exposed term-born children remain limited. Among 4128 discordant sib pairs, steroids significantly associated with mental & behavioral disorder. Time to be more selective? https://t.co/aGDC0A98YM

[Jonathan Morris @jthanmorris]

There are many learnings from this pandemic - the importance of investment in preventative health and research are surely two @nhmrc #publichealth #mrff

[Jonathan Morris @jthanmorris]

@franmcconville @world_midwives @CarolineHomer @elizabeth_iro @UNFPA @WHO @unicefchief Terrific and worthy recognition

[Jonathan Morris @jthanmorris]

After a weekend when we paused to remember the sacrifice so many have made for their fellow citizens, we hear in these times of those who would rather put self first and oppose #covidsafe . Download the app, keep us all safe

[Jonathan Morris @jthanmorris]

All pregnant women can be reassured that they will have a support person with them in labour and not be separated from their baby after birth unless it is unsafe.

[NSW Health @NSWHealth]

Are you pregnant and due to give birth soon?

Watch below to find out who can be your support person during labour and the process once your child is born.

Things may be different during COVID-19 but we want to try and keep you and your baby safe.

[Jonathan Morris @jthanmorris]

Possible early encouragement here for Australia. This episode is a stark reminder to all of us in the acute healthcare sector that primary prevention is always the most effective intervention

[Jonathan Morris @jthanmorris]

An exceptional woman who cared for some of the worlds most disadvantaged women. May her example continue to inspire love, compassion and humility within all working in women’s health https://t.co/LFnteNpb3z
