Brief description Despite our best efforts at lowering the ñbadî LDL-cholesterol with statins, heart disease remains the leading cause of death in Australia. One of the biggest problems is early detection of the disease. We know that people with heart disease have abnormal lipid levels. From a single blood sample, we aim to develop and optimize our lipid profiling techniques so that we can provide a cheaper but faster and more accurate test to determine those individuals who may be at much higher risk of a heart attack or stroke.
