Dr Adam Piers
Adam manages the Melbourne Children’s Centre for Cardiovascular Genomics and Regenerative Medicine (CardioRegen) Murdoch Children's Research Institute's Heart Flagship, and The Royal Children's Hospital. Both programs bring together researchers, clinicians and patient advocates from across the Children’s campus to improve the lives of children with heart disease.
Adam was previously a lab-based researcher working in labs across Perth, Oxford and Melbourne on projects ranging from muscular dystrophy to inherited cardiomyopathies. After completing his PhD at MCRI, Adam made the transition away from bench to Clinical Research Coordinator where he was embedded across multiple departments in the Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH). Since 2018, he has been in his current role as Program Manager of CardioRegen and the MCRI Heart Flagship. Adam is passionate about consumer engagement and he continues to learn in this space through his work as co-chair of the Heart Flagship Patient Advocacy Group which aims to advocate for the patient voice in research and create a two-way dialogue between researchers and the cardiac community.
