Grant Activity:
Interventions to eliminate rheumatic heart disease
Purpose:
My research has translated to ways to reduce acute rheumatic fever (ARF), rheumatic heart disease (RHD) and Group A Streptococcal (GAS) diseases globally and in Australia. We are on track to implement a strategy to eliminate RHD in Australia. However, there remain evidence gaps. My research will focus on four of these: Practical primordial prevention (dealing with the root causes); A GAS vaccine; New approaches to ARF diagnosis and treatment; A better form of long-acting penicillin.
