Our researchers unveiled new data of a RCT across 7 Aust sites with 3yr follow-up at #ESC2024 which provides support for use of #CACS to guide use of more intensive preventive strategies in individuals at #intermediate #risk with a family history of #CAD RACGP @HeartFoundation

Great to see spotlight on Nirtek in TV story below. This startup was developed off the back of pioneering research by KarlheinzPeter. Nirtek was developed to prevent #heartattacks by detecting unstable coronary plaques using patented technology called near infrared autofluorescence

Innovative 💡, supportive 🤗 & research with heart ❤️ - just a few reasons why students choose the Baker to complete their #postgraduate studies. 🎫 Baker Institute Student Information Session 📅 Wednesday 4 September, 4pm 📍 Level 7, Baker Institute, 75 Commercial Rd, Melbourne

Fast forward a few months & many of these students will be sitting with our 🌟 researchers, making new discoveries, & enjoying lunches with a spectacular view. Thanks for attending our student info session yesterday. We hope you're as excited about a future with us as we are.
