このコンテンツについて

Heart Lab is a research venture dedicated to studying the effects of exercise on the heart to better understand heart disease. Backed by the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute, St Vincent’s Institute, and St Vincent’s Hospital, our team consists of PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, and international collaborators from Belgium and Spain.

Our research focuses on using elite athletes—often considered the "F1 engines" of the human body—to gain insights into heart function. These findings not only help us better understand and address heart rhythm disorders, sudden cardiac death, and other serious cardiovascular conditions, but also translate into practical applications for the general public.

By bridging the gap between athletic performance and heart health, we aim to develop strategies that benefit everyone, from those looking to optimise their fitness to individuals managing heart disease.

  • If you have a finite number of heartbeats, why waste them?
    2025/04/02

    Does exercise "waste" heartbeats?

    Can you use up your heartbeats by exercising? Is there a smart way to manage them?

    Professor André La Gerche breaks down what we know—whether exercise actually "spends" your heartbeats, how to use them wisely, and what the latest research says.

  • Sudden Cardiac Death | Prof André La Gerche
    2025/03/04

    Every year, Sudden Cardiac Death claims the lives of 500 Victorians under 50—three to four times more than road accidents. In this episode, we explore the causes, risk factors, and misconceptions of Cardiac Arrests, Sudden Cardiac Death, and Heart Failure. We dive into the role of genetics, the challenges of screening, and what family screening looks like for those with a history of cardiac arrest. Plus, we break down the critical importance of CPR and defibrillation, the complex relationship between exercise and heart health.
