New study from a genetic DCM cohort suggests there are distinct categories of environmental #riskfactors for HF. Findings point to a window of phenotypic plasticity where LV function can recover from environmental insults. #AHAJournals @fatkinlab ahajrnls.org/3Fk63Nz

Great to see amyloid up on the big screen at #ESCCongress2024. Standing room only following hotline results of HELIOS-B earlier this week. Exciting times for targeted treatment in cardiomyopathies ❤️ #amyloid @ISA_Amyloidosis @OzAmyloidosis @escardio #CardioTwitter

We're thrilled to have been recognised in @MRSolutionsUK 's Image of the Year contest!
Huge thanks to @MRSolutionsUK, Nana Sunn at the #InnovationCentre & the Lucas PawPaw Foundation for helping us make zebrafish cardiac #MRI in Australia a reality 🫀🐟🧬
Congrats to the #InnovationCentre team & the @fatkinlab! A great collaborative effort with @MRSolutionsUK & with thanks to support from the Lucas Papaw Foundation in this cardiomyopathy research from where we captured these images.

The goal of the ACTIVE-AF trial was to assess the safety and efficacy of exercise and physical activity intervention among patients with symptomatic paroxysmal or persistent #AFib. Get the clinical trial details here:

Australian scientists have identified genes that cause rare childhood cancer sarcoma in a study led by @GarvanInstitute's Dr @ballingermandy + @ProfDMThomas with contributions from the Institute’s Prof Diane @FatkinLab, A/Prof @egiannoulatou, Dr Emma Rath + Prof Bob Graham. @UNSW
Australian researchers, led by Dr Mandy Ballinger, have created the first genetic map to identify important genes that cause sarcoma, one of the most common cancers in children. @OmicoAustralia @UNSW @ScienceMagazine @ballingermandy ow.ly/KFZx50MvFhj

This #AtrialFibrillationAwarenessWeek, hearts4heart.org.au is encouraging Australians to make simple changes to improve their heart health, including physical activity & reducing excess weight. Don’t put your heart health on hold. Speak with your GP & get your heart checked.

What an incredible day for the Institute! Almost $4M awarded from #MRFF will help families discover if they are carrying genetic mutations and investigate how alcohol affects the heart. Huge congrats to Prof Diane @fatkinlab and Prof @VandenbergJamie: victorchang.edu.au/news/fund…

Our congratulations extend to Dr @adamphill, Prof Diane @fatkinlab and Prof Richard Harvey, part of a team led by Dr @n_palpant @IMBatUQ awarded a $3M grant from #MRFF Genomics Health Futures Mission to improve genetic testing.

It's #WomensHealthWeek and we're shining a light on #HeartDisease in women. 22 Australian women will die of heart disease today. It's time to bust the myth that it's a man's disease and learn more about women's unique symptoms: victorchang.edu.au/womenhear…

We have made good progress on sudden cardiac death, rolling out defibrillators and public awareness...but still have a way to go. Need to ensure Women get CPR. @GregPage_Yellow @AndyPaschalidis @VictorChangInst
Women are less likely to receive bystander CPR than men. Research suggests this may be fueled by fears of being accused of assault or of doing physical harm.

Nearly 40yrs ago Dr Victor Chang performed the Aus's 1st successful #HeartTransplant. Since then 1000s of lives like Victoria’s have been saved thanks to pioneering surgery and those who chose to donate their hearts. Please register to @DonateLifeToday

Proud to see the Institute's Prof @VandenbergJamie speak at @HOfFootball's annual fundraising gala. A night we hope will lead to more heart awareness campaigns, deliver more community Heart Health Checks + boost efforts to have defibrillators at sporting grounds across Australia
