Project D-Light aims to understand and harness the benefits of vitamin D and sunlight for Australian children while protecting them from excess UV.

Research from Perth's The Kids for Child Health Research shows that symptoms of depression in young men may be associated with low vitamin D levels.

New research has found that children of mums who had low levels of Vitamin D during pregnancy are twice as likely to have language difficulties.

Research has discovered the first concrete evidence linking Vitamin D deficiency with poorer lung function and changes in lung growth.

In experimental models, both vitamin D3-dependent and vitamin D3-independent pathways have been implicated in the mechanisms of UVR-induced systemic...

Despite considerable advances, the exact mechanism whereby UVR can lead to changes in immune responses is not entirely clear at present, and no...

In this chapter, evidence for and evidence against the involvement of vitamin D in the immunoregulatory properties of UV radiation is presented.

The analysis of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) and related metabolites represents a considerable challenge for both clinical and research laboratories...

Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) from sunlight is immunomodulatory and the main source of vitamin D for humans.

The objective was to determine the association between maternal serum 25(OH)-vitamin D concentrations and behavioural, emotional and language outcomes...
