Sian Cartland Asia-Pacific Vaccine and Immunotherapy Congress 2026

Sian Cartland

Dr Siân Cartland is Group Leader of the Cardiovascular Immunotherapy Group at the Heart Research Institute, Sydney Australia. She received her PhD in 2012 from the Centre for Vascular Research at the University of New South Wales, following earlier research assistant roles in Sydney and at the University of Oxford, UK. Her research investigates how immune cells, particularly myeloid cells, drive vascular inflammation and tissue injury in atherosclerosis and peripheral artery disease (PAD). By integrating molecular, cellular, and immunological approaches, she aims to define the immune mechanisms that regulate vascular repair and chronic inflammation. This knowledge underpins the broader goal of developing targeted immunotherapies to reprogram maladaptive inflammation and restore vascular health.
