Exploring health inequalities in the impact of unpaid caregiving on employment for carers of people with dementia

University of Liverpool

Institute of Population Health

Background. Nearly 1 million people are living with dementia in the UK, with this number continuously growing. Unfortunately, care needs to be supplemented by family members and friends, as formal care does not meet all the needs of people living with dementia. Read more

From molecular defects to cardiac dysfunction: Troponin I mutations in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

University of Liverpool

Institute of Systems, Molecular and Integrative Biology

Background. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common inherited heart disease, affecting 1 in 500 people. HCM thickens the heart muscle, impairing relaxation and pumping, and increases risks of arrhythmia and sudden death. Read more
