Seminars are held in the Anatomy building on the first floor, room 1.81

Kevin Grimes is the Co-Director of the SPARK Program in Translational Research and an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemical and Systems Biology at the Stanford University School of Medicine. He received

his MD from Brown University and completed his residency in internal medicine at Stanford University. He became a Clinical Assistant Professor of Medicine at Stanford, where his primary duties included the teaching and practice of internal medicine. Grimes received a Hartford Foundation Fellowship to study health economics at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and obtained an MBA. He was subsequently selected as a White House Fellow and assigned to the Department of Defense, where he served as Special Assistant to the Secretary. He spent fifteen years in industry, working in the medical device, life science consulting, and biotechnology sectors prior to returning to Stanford to co-direct SPARK. In addition to SPARK, Grimes teaches graduate student courses on drug discovery and development and continues to teach and practice internal medicine. He has received the David Rytand Award for Excellence in Clinical Teaching and the Faculty Award for Excellence in Graduate Teaching. SPARK’s two-fold mission is to advance promising research discoveries into the clinic as new therapeutics and diagnostics, and to educate faculty, post-doctoral fellows and students regarding the translational process. SPARK participants receive modest funding, education regarding translational research, and targeted mentorship on their specific projects. Over sixty volunteers from the local biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and health care investment community serve as advisors and mentors. SPARK is now in its tenth year. Approximately 60% of projects completing the program have been licensed and/or advanced to clinical trials. Kevin is in Perth to launch SPARK Co-Lab’s own initiative to connect Perth’s medical innovation ecosystem.

The Research Development Unit presents

Single Ethical Review and the Research Governance Service

Presenters: Katherine Coltrona – Senior Policy Officer Diana Forster – A/Senior Policy Officer

Date 19 August 2016

Time 12:00 noon to 2:00pm

Venue MacDonald Lecture Theatre, Ground Floor, PMH Administration Building (entrance from Roberts Road)

Who Open to all staff involved in research

Single ethical review of multi-site human research within WA Health was introduced in 2013, as a forerunner for the introduction the National Mutual Acceptance (NMA) process. This has allowed administrative processes involved in authorising research projects at multiple sites with one ethical review to be established prior to legally joining the NMA. The NMA will provide WA Health sites the ability to accept ethical approval from a Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC) sponsored by a public sector Australian institution.

Members of the NMA are required to have the capability of a web-based research governance platform to submit, track and report on applications. WA Health has been developing the Research Governance Service (RGS) IT platform to meet the NMA requirements and sign the Memorandum of Understanding in 2017. Stage 1 of the RGS is due for release in November 2016 and extra capabilities to support the NMA will be released over 2017.

The RGS provides a collaborative workspace for investigators, project members, sponsors, institutions, research governance offices and HRECs to govern and report on research through the life cycle of the project, from initial application to publication. All research projects conducted within WA Health must utilise the RGS.

Information sessions are being held across WA Health so that everyone who intends conducting research can find out how the process will work in the RGS.

Please see page 2 for video conferencing details.

Seminar Series 2016 5th Floor Seminar Room Medical Research Foundation Building Rear 50 Murray St, Perth WA 6000 Fridays @ 3pm Enquiries: W/Prof Markus Schlaich phone: 9224 0382 email: markus.schlaich@uwa.edu.au

TIME: FRIDAY, 19 August 2016 @ 3pm VENUE: 5th Floor Seminar Room, MRF Building, Rear 50 Murray Street PRESENTER: Professor Murray Esler MBBS PhD FRACP AM

TITLE: “Assessment and implications of sympathetic nervous system activation in CV disease”

Prof. Esler is a cardiologist and medical scientist, based at the Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Institute and the Alfred Hospital, Melbourne, Australia. His research interests are: The human sympathetic nervous system, Stress and its effects on the heart and blood pressure, Causes and treatment of high blood pressure and heart failure, Neurotransmitters of the human brain. He is the author of more than 400 papers on these topics. Prof Esler’s principal research contribution has been the development of isotope dilution methodology to study the human sympathetic nervous system, and the application of this tool in the investigation of the sympathetic neural physiology of circulatory control, aging, exercise and mental stress responses, and the neural pathophysiology of cardiac failure and essential hypertension. His demonstration of a high level of chronic activation of the cardiac sympathetic outflow in patients with heart failure provided the theoretical backdrop for the evaluation of beta-adrenergic blockers in this condition. More recently, his demonstration of activation of the renal sympathetic outflow in essential hypertension was a stimulus for the development of the novel treatment for difficult to control patients, radio-frequency ablation of the renal sympathetic nerves with purpose-designed renal artery catheter.
