Prof. Figtree is an Interventional Cardiologist, Professor in Medicine and Chair of the University of Sydney’s multi-disciplinary Cardiovascular Initiative. Prof Figtree and her multi-disciplinary research team have significantly progressed the BioHEART study, which is aiming to validate blood markers to significantly improve heart attack risk prediction. The aim is to have a simple blood test that could identify heart attack risk 10-15 years before someone experiences one. Prof Figtree will share her latest findings.
