Heart failure (HF) is a major cause of death in Australia. A/Prof Rebecca Ritchie heads Heart Failure Pharmacology at Baker IDI. Her research focuses on new drug strategies to maintain heart function in response to diabetes & heart attack, common precursors of HF. Many of the treatments discovered from this work are naturally-occurring antioxidants; enhancing their activity will ultimately reduce progression to HF & death in the >3 million Australians affected by these disorders.

心力衰竭（HF）是澳大利亚的主要死亡原因。A/Rebecca里奇教授在Baker IDI负责心力衰竭药理学。她的研究重点是新的药物策略，以维持心脏功能，以应对糖尿病和心脏病发作，HF的常见前兆。从这项工作中发现的许多治疗方法都是天然存在的抗氧化剂;增强它们的活性将最终减少受这些疾病影响的300万澳大利亚人的HF进展和死亡。
