Research Grant

Researchers: Prof Gemma Figtree (Principal investigator)

Brief description Heart attacks remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality. I am an interventional cardiologist who heads an expanding basic and translational science laboratory (Cardiac Oxidative Signalling) at the Kolling Institute and who plays a leading role in clinical cardiovascular research at Royal North Shore Hospital. My vision is to translate fundamental discoveries in our Laboratory to new therapies and methods of risk stratification to improve immediate and long term outcomes of patients suffering heart attack.
