Brief description Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a leading cause of sudden cardiac death but the mechanisms for the induction of arrhythmia are unknown. This proposal has the potential to impact sudden death in the young and enable significant expansion of Australia’s research capacity into the treatment of familial hypertrophic heart disease in humans.
