Funding to tackle growing heart disease among children
29 Apr 2021 | 3 mins
Scientists at The University of Western Australia and Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute have been awarded $500,000 to develop new treatments for the world’s leading cause of cardiac death among children.
The funding boost from global biotechnology company CSL will be used to further research into hypertrophic cardiomyopathy – also known as ‘big heart syndrome’ – which affects children between five and 15 years old.
“Right now, we have no way of preventing or reversing damage to the heart. All we can do is alleviate the symptoms.”
Professor Livia Hool
Professor Livia Hool, from UWA’s School of Human Sciences, said the award would help build on previous breakthrough discoveries and could prevent and even reverse the damage of the inherited disease, which causes the heart to become dangerously large. ....

Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute
The funding boost by global biotech giant CSL will be used to drive research into hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, the world’s leading cause of cardiac death for children aged between five and 15.
It is hoped the award will help Professor Livia Hool and her WA based team deliver through on their breakthrough discovery, which could potentially both prevent and reverse the damage of the inherited heart disease which causes the heart to become dangerously large.
“This disease affects around one in 500 people and could be as common as one in every 200. It’s shocking that we have no way of preventing or reversing the damage to the heart. All we can do now is alleviate the symptoms,” says Professor Livia Hool. ....
