Cardiovascular disease (CVD) claims 1 person every 10 min in Australia and causes 1 in 3 deaths worldwide. The molecular and cellular processes underlying atherosclerosis, vascular injury and thrombosis are highly complex and not well understood. A multifaceted approach is needed to effectively address these key challenges. This Program brings together world experts in these areas to interrogate gaps in our basic understanding of CVD, and to develop novel therapies for CVD patients by exploiting new knowledge through integrated research.

在澳大利亚，每10分钟就有1人死于心血管疾病（CVD），全世界每3人死亡中就有1人死于心血管疾病。动脉粥样硬化、血管损伤和血栓形成的分子和细胞过程是高度复杂的，目前还不清楚。要有效应对这些关键挑战，需要采取多方面的办法。该项目汇集了这些领域的世界专家，探讨我们对心血管疾病基本认识的差距，并通过综合研究开发新知识，为心血管疾病患者开发新的治疗方法。
