Summary
Over the next 5 years, I will become an independent researcher and lead a program of work that improves heart care. My research will assess the association between high dose flu vaccine and the prevention of heart disease and test a general practice quality improvement program to enhance vaccination rate in Australia. This will deepen our understanding of the effect of flu vaccination and provide evidence to assist in generating guidelines/policies to help reduce heart disease among Australians.
