Five observational studies will be undertaken that will investigate phenotypic predictors of low-density lipoprotein receptor mutations, the point prevalence of FH in unselected community populations, knowledge and practices of primary care physicians concerning FH, availability and utilization of services and facilities for the care of FH, and patient perceptions and personal experiences of FH.<\/p>\n<p>A related objective is to close gaps in knowledge and awareness of FH through an educational program that will be provided under the aegis of country-specific societies that are members of the International Atherosclerosis Society.<\/p>\n<h3>Expressions of interest<\/h3>\n<p>The FH Australasia Network is keen to work together developing investigator-initiated research as well as participating in international research projects.
