Funded Activity Summary

Cardiac arrhythmias affect approximately 5% of the population and have a high association with sudden death. Whilst the cause of cardiac arrhythmia is complex, we know that genetic mutations play a role however we don't know all the genes important for cardiac rhythm. It is imperative that we identify all the genes in this process, so we can determine which mutations cause arrhythmia. We have identified a new gene that causes cardiac arrhythmia and seek to understand how it functions.
