Be Still Be Aware

In today's episode we chat virtually with a host of industry experts and friends of Still Aware to talk about all things research. Along with Claire, on today's episode we have Professor Vicki Flenady, the Director of the NHMRC/Centre of Research Excellence in Stillbirth, Leigh Brezler, CEO of the Stillbirth Foundation Australia, and Dr Miranda Davies-Tuck, a NHMRC/Stillbirth CRE Postdoctoral Research Fellow and Perinatal Epidemiologist at the Hudson Institute of Medical Research (Ritchie Centre).
We have a wealth of knowledge 'in the room' today so this episode is not to be missed. Some key takeaways are:
– The importance of research
– Understanding research in Australia; and
– Stillbirth research and the road ahead.
On behalf of Still Aware we thank these three marvelous ladies for taking the time out to come and speak to us today. Your contribution to stillbirth research is helping save the littlest lives every day, and we are honored to have you a part of our program.

In today's episode we delve deep with Emma Bowes. Emma shares with us her personal journey with her beautiful daughter Elke, who was tragically born still at 36 weeks.
Some topics we touch on today are:
• Stillbirth, and what it is like to introduce your baby to their siblings.
• How to make memories with your baby
• What hindsight can teach us about pregnancy
• The power within, and;
• How to communicate with your baby in pregnancy.
For those that don't know, Emma also ran a fundraiser for Still Aware this year. With the help of friends, family, and her community she was able to raise over $22,000 for Still Aware – a monumental achievement! Emma is a Member of our Still Aware 100 Voices Program in honour of Elke, and we cannot express enough how grateful we are to have her as part of our community, and all she has done for not only us, but stillbirth awareness at large.
Thank you for being with us today Emma,
