Funded Activity Summary

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in Australia. In this fellowship, I will investigate different markers in the blood and risk factors that can help to identify people at an increased risk of developing heart disease. The ultimate aim of this project is to identify blood markers or factors that can be used to identify and treat people at the early stages of heart disease, thus reducing the death rate and associated economic burden of the disease.
