Congratulations to all those vascular biology scientists @AVBS_org who received funding from the @heartfoundation 🥂🥂👏👏
Rebuilding the ♥️ after a #heartattack, using #mRNA therapy to prevent #bloodclots & using ultrasound to provide a window into #AF in people with #diabetes. These are some of the projects our scientists will undertake thanks to @heartfoundation funding👏 baker.edu.au/news/media-rele…
