Funded Activity Summary

There is an urgent need for new tools to improve risk prediction for coronary artery disease which accounts for one fifth of deaths in Australia. Polygenic risk scores that incorporate the information from millions of genetic variants have shown great promise, but need prospective evaluation. Our team of clinical, research, industry and government leaders will develop clinical pathways and implement polygenic risk scores in primary care to improve precision of preventative strategies.
