Funded Activity Summary

Heart failure is a common disorder that is marked by significant symptoms and reduced survival. Reduced cardiac performance is the key responsible mechanism. At the tissue level, altered energy metabolism is a major contributor. Mitochondria are the cellular elements that produce energy and in this project we aim to study how a key process that regulates mitochondrial activity behaves in the setting of heart failure.
