Congenital Heart Disease: How Regenerative Medicine Research is Making a Difference
Here at the Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute, we’re investigating the potential of regenerative medicine to treat and, hopefully, one day prevent, congenital heart disease. ‘Congenital heart diseases’ (CHDs) are the most common serious birth defect in Australia and internationally, affecting 1 in 100 live-born babies. With this troubling statistic, chances are many of us will […]
