Congratulations are in order for Associate Professor Duncan Sparrow, who has been awarded a renewal of his British Heart Foundation Senior Basic Science Research Fellowship. The award will fund crucial investigations into little understood environmental risk factors of congenital heart disease, and could one day lead to new therapeutic strategies.
As part of the Molecular Flow Sensor Team, with collaborating members principally from DPAG's Robbins and Talbot groups and the Department of Chemistry, former BHF DPhil Student Snapper Magor-Elliott has won the Royal Society of Chemistry\u2019s (RSC) Analytical Division Horizon Prize for the development of a new technology for measuring lung function.
Associate Professor Sarah De Val will lead a team of researchers as they take on the British Heart Foundation\u2019s (BHF) London to Brighton Bike Ride.
Pint of Science is the world\u2019s largest public science festival bringing researchers to local pubs, cafes and spaces to share their scientific discoveries with the public.
DPAG scientists across four research groups were highlighted at the major annual European Society of Cardiology basic science conference (FCVB 2022). Congratulations are in order for Dr KC Park on receiving the Young Investigator Award and to Dr Elisabetta Gamen on winning the Moderated Poster Prize.
Research led by Dr Alzbeta Hulikova and Professor Pawel Swietach has, for the first time, described the potential regulation of nuclear acid-base chemistry in neonatal and adult cardiomyocytes, and explained its relevance in the context of heart physiology and pathology.
Researchers at the Cardiovascular Clinical Research Facility (CCRF) have won a five year MRC funding programme to help understand how high blood pressure (hypertension) during pregnancy affects the heart, brain and blood vessels throughout the life of women, as well as the children born after such a pregnancy.
A new study involving Oxford Population Health researchers finds that both prevention and improved treatments have helped reduce deaths from heart attacks - but the relative importance of each varies by country, age and sex.
The wide-ranging effects of Long COVID and the associated issues for healthcare providers have been revealed in a new review of the major studies into the condition, which specifically highlights the impact of Long COVID on the cardiovascular system.
An Oxford BHF CRE \u201cPump Priming\u201d award to Professor Shoumo Bhattacharya and his research group led to a great return on investment with this exclusive licensing agreement for their innovative research.
Two projects aimed at tackling heart failure led by Associate Professor Sarah De Val and Dr Joaquim Vieira are to be funded by the 2022 TCS London Marathon with the British Heart Foundation as its Charity of the Year. The BHF\u2019s runners, who are raising \u00a33 million in funding, will include De Val Lab postdoctoral researcher Dr Alice Neal.
Congratulations to Jillian, who has begun her Oxford BHF CRE Transition Fellowship, focusing on nutrient sensing and signalling in the heart by PKA-RI\u03b1 (or type-1 PKA)
Many congratulations to Dr Qiang Zhang, Oxford BHF CRE Transition Fellow, who has won a prestigious award for his work in developing a groundbreaking technology for detecting scar in the myocardium
