Research summary
To understand the response to vascular and myocardial injury in patients with coronary heart disease, and develop novel therapeutic approaches to promote vascular repair and improve clinical outcomes.
Professor Mills is a member of the Cardiovascular Outcomes Research Edinburgh (CORE) Group, which brings together researchers from the Centres for Cardiovascular Science and Population Health Sciences with support from the Edinburgh Clinical Trials Unit. CORE aims to improve clinical outcomes for patients with cardiovascular disease by harnessing the potential of National Health Service electronic datasets to systematically evaluate the impact of changes in practice on clinical outcomes.
