Prof Peter J Psaltis (MBBS (Hons), PhD, FRACP, FCSANZ, FESC)
Professor Peter Psaltis is an academic Interventional and Preventative Cardiologist who holds a Level 3 National Heart Foundation Future Leader Fellowship and Faculty positions at the Central Adelaide Local Health Network, University of Adelaide and South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute (SAHMRI). He is the co-Deputy Director of SAHMRI, co-leads its largest research department (Lifelong Health Theme) and leads its Heart and Vascular Health Program. Concurrently, he is Head of Interventional Cardiology at the Royal Adelaide Hospital. Among national and state leadership positions, Peter is a Board Director of the Australian Cardiovascular Alliance and co-Chair of its Coronary Artery Disease Clinical Theme, past-President of the Australian Atherosclerosis Society, co-Chair of the South Australian Aboriginal Heart and Stroke Leadership Group, and co-Chair of the Heart Foundation’s South Australian Cardiovascular Research Network.
Peter has expertise across all three disciplines of basic, translational, and clinical research and leads bench-to-bedside projects spanning topics of developmental macrophage biology, vascular stem cells, inflammatory regulation of atherosclerosis, pharmacological modification of atherosclerosis, coronary plaque imaging, the modelling of biomechanical forces in coronary arteries and cardiometabolic disease. He has received >$22 million of peer-reviewed grant funding and received the 2021 NHMRC Marshall and Warren Award for Innovation. As of early 2025, Peter has published >240 manuscripts and book chapters. His research has global impact and reach, and he ranks in the top 0.05% worldwide for productivity and impact in coronary artery research over the last 5 years, also receiving numerous national and international awards for his scientific discoveries. Peter has supervised 10 EMCRs and graduated 13 PhD (4 as principal supervisor, all Dean’s commendation, including one Doctoral Research Medal) and 12 Hons students (all first class).
Research Overview
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide, costing $150 billion/year. Over the last decade, Prof Psaltis’ bench-to-bedside program has made world-first discoveries of new cellular1,2, molecular3,4 and biomechanical5 mechanisms underlying atherosclerosis, and provided key insights on patterns of coronary disease6-8 and post-MI outcomes9-12. Peter’s work has also helped define the responsiveness of coronary plaque to different antiatherosclerotic therapies13-15.
Three themes of his work’s transformative impact include groundbreaking findings of:
- SCAD (spontaneous coronary artery dissection) as a non-atherosclerotic cause of MI 6,16,17;
-
Anti-atherosclerotic properties of the anti-inflammatory drug, COLCHICINE 15,18-20; and
- Ability of PCSK9 inhibitors to stabilise and regress coronary plaque after MI14,21-24.
Peter is also interested in atherosclerotic plaque buildup in arteries following heart attacks. Despite current care standards, heart attack survivors are at high risk of repeat, life-threatening events from continued arterial plaque build-up. His research aims to transform management after a heart attack by using CT imaging to visualise remaining plaque, monitor how it changes over time, and study how it relates to inflammation. This will allow us to better predict an individual’s risk, reduce repeat events, and develop novel treatments 4,8,25.

Projects available for Honours 2026 and 2027
Project 1
Title: Human EndoMac progenitor cells - Isolation and characterisation
Description: Blood vessel formation is essential for tissue development, growth, and repair. Macrophages and endothelial cells play interlinked roles in blood vessel formation. In adult tissues, these cell types are thought to originate independently of each other. We have discovered unique adult stem cells in mouse tissues termed Endothelial-Macrophage (EndoMac) progenitor cells that give rise to both macrophages and endothelial cells and contribute to blood vessel formation after tissue injury. We have found analogous cells in human tissues. This project aims to isolate, characterise, and investigate the properties of human EndoMac progenitor cells, for therapeutic manipulation.
Project 2
Title: Investigating mechanisms underlying pathogenesis of scleroderma-related vasculopathy
Description: Scleroderma, a chronic autoimmune disorder, is characterised by inflammation, vasculopathy and fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Vasculopathy can affect both micro- and macro- blood circulation, resulting in blue fingertips or Raynaud’s phenomenon, fingertip ulcers, and lung and renal complications. Injury and dysfunction of endothelial cells, the building blocks of blood vessels, are thought to trigger vasculopathy of the skin that manifests as Raynaud’s phenomenon but the causes are poorly understood. This project will investigate the role of cellular senescence and autophagy in endothelial cell injury/ dysfunction and fingertip ulcers in scleroderma, to identify biomarkers for early diagnosis and disease management.
