Elucidating the role of disease modifying gene variants in inherited cardiomyopathies using induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes and CRISPR/Cas-9.
Our group is interested in uncovering and understanding key mechanisms of disease that affect cardiac muscle function. We have a particular interest in understanding how regulation of cardiac muscle contraction is altered in common acquired and inherited cardiovascular diseases. Read more
Assessing therapeutic strategies to target the counter-regulatory renin-angiotensin system in cardiovascular disease
Project outline: . The renin angiotensin system (RAS) is a hormonal cascade mediating cardiovascular function. The RAS is key to the development of cardiovascular diseases, including cardiac remodelling in hypertension and heart failure and atherosclerosis. Read more
Epigenetic regulation in heart failure and cardiac sudden death
A large proportion of heart failure patients die from cardiac sudden death (SCD), a direct result of lethal ventricular arrhythmias, which is the principal cause of mortality from heart disease worldwide and remains a major unresolved public health problem. Read more
