Funded Activity Summary

'Familial' means it runs in families and 'hypercholesterolaemia' means high blood cholesterol. Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is the most common and serious form of inherited high cholesterol. People with FH are at an increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease. High cholesterol also placed an estimated $4 billion burden on the Australian economy in 2017-18. Practical research on prevention strategies will improve cardiovascular health outcomes and lower the burden of health costs.
