Gemma Alexandra Figtree Шаблон:Post-nominals is an Interventional Cardiologist at Royal North Shore Hospital, Professor in Medicine at the University of Sydney, chair of the Federal Government's 10-year Mission for Cardiovascular Health,[1][2] and co-leader of the Cardiovascular Theme for Sydney Health Partners.[3]

Career

Figtree has dedicated her career to unravelling key mechanisms of heart attack susceptibility, combining clinical work as an interventional cardiologist with laboratory research, large cohort studies, and clinical trials.[3]

As a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford University, Figtree's cardiovascular research led to fundamental discoveries about estrogen and NO/redox regulation. Her research focuses on improving prediction, prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease and heart attacks, inspired by her clinical work as an interventional cardiologist.[3]

Research

Discoveries in her laboratory have been published in leading peer-reviewed journals, with over 190 publications cited ~9250 times.Шаблон:Citation needed Driven by patient care as an interventional cardiologist, Figtree's research reflects bench-to-bedside knowledge translation of molecular discoveries to the clinic, and her work with health digital twin technology[4] contributes to advances in precision medicine.

As a cardiologist spokesperson, Figtree has been recognized for her work with baby heart conditions,[5] cardiovascular disease, and heart attacks in people who are not identified as "at risk",[6][1] and leads the Federal Mission for Cardiovascular Health.[2]
