Abstract
The National Heart Foundation of Australia has been supporting cardiovascular research for more than 40 years. It has funded grants-in-aid to a wide range of researchers involved in basic, clinical and public health aspects of cardiovascular disease. It has also provided salary support for a large number of scholarships and fellowships. In addition, it has initiated and conducted projects of its own in the areas of epidemiology and public health research and, in partnership with industrial sponsors, has conducted large-scale clinical trials.[a/b]
