Australian Child Health and Air Pollution (ACHAPS) Study

	Adriana Cortés I am a medical graduate and I did a Masters in International Public Health (Hons) at University of Sydney. I have worked at the Woolcock Institute of Medical Research for 18 months and worked previously on a similar project about air quality and children's respiratory health based in Sydney. I am very excited to be running the project with this wonderful team and to visit so many Australian children across the country!


	Paola Espinel I am a medical graduate and I came to Sydney four years ago to study a master in Public Health at the University of New South Wales. I have been working at the Woolcock Institute of Medical Research for a year. In 2006 I participated in an international study testing lung function in adults. My previous experience involved working for 2 years at a paediatrics emergency department. I love and enjoy working with kids. I look forward travelling and meeting so many kids this year.


	Kate Hardaker I am a scientist from Sydney and worked at the Woolcock Institute of Medical Research for over a year now. In 2006 I was part of an international study looking at chronic lung disease. I have tested children’s lung function and allergies in a hospital clinic. I am excited to be working on such an important study and looking forward to meeting so many new people!
