The Heart Research Institute is an internationally recognised medical research institute that performs groundbreaking cardiovascular research from our state-of-the-art facilities located in Newtown, Sydney and the Charles Perkins Centre at the University of Sydney. We want to see a future where no-one dies needlessly of cardiovascular disease. Our mission is to improve global health by understanding the causes and complications of cardiovascular disease. Our ambition is to prevent cardiovascular disease and to develop the next generation of treatments. Cardiovascular disease is Australia’s, and the world’s biggest killer. By partnering with the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, we take our inspiration from the challenges doctors face at the patient’s bedside, offering solutions to real-world problems and saving, and improving, real people's lives.
