Heart Disease

Cardiovascular disease is a global killer. Now researchers have developed a fast, inexpensive and scalable method for engineering blood vessels from natural tissue

The recent deaths of high-profile Australians due to suspected heart attacks is a reminder for all of us to check our heart health

By studying the zebrafish, researchers have discovered how a gene involved in cardiac rhythm works – helping to explain how a heartbeat develops

New research shows that fat tissue around the heart releases molecules that alter heart rhythm, identifying potential new targets for preventative therapies for heart disease
