Dr Sivabaskari (Tharshy) Pasupathy is an internationally recognised leader in the field of Non-Obstructive Coronary Artery (NOCA) syndromes, including Myocardial Infarction with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries (MINOCA) and Ischaemia with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries (INOCA). She is a research-only academic at the University of Adelaide, where she has established a world-renowned research programme dedicated to elucidating the mechanisms, diagnosis, and management of these under-recognised yet clinically important conditions.
Her pioneering research is among the most cited in the field of MINOCA, shaping international definitions, diagnostic frameworks, and clinical practice. Dr Pasupathy graduated with a Bachelor of Science (First Class Honours) in 2011 and completed her PhD in Medicine at the University of Adelaide (2012–2016). Since then, she has led a dynamic and influential research programme within the Translational Vascular Function Research Collaborative at the Basil Hetzel Institute.
Through her leadership and international collaborations, Dr Pasupathy continues to advance diagnostic precision and therapeutic strategies for patients with NOCA syndromes, driving global awareness and improving outcomes for this often-overlooked patient population.
Research Vision
Dr Pasupathy’s overarching research vision is to advance the diagnosis, characterisation, and treatment of Non-Obstructive Coronary Artery (NOCA) syndromes—a group of conditions that includes MINOCA (Myocardial Infarction with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries) and INOCA (Ischaemia with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries). These syndromes remain under-recognised, poorly understood, and often inadequately managed within conventional cardiology practice. Her research seeks to address this critical gap by reframing NOCA as an area of focused scientific inquiry. Through translational and clinical research, Dr Pasupathy aims to improve diagnostic precision, identify pathophysiological mechanisms, and inform therapeutic strategies, ultimately driving better outcomes for a patient population frequently overlooked in mainstream cardiovascular care.
Dr Pasupathy has authored several peer-reviewed publications. Her body of work includes invited editorials and reviews, and her research has been cited more than 3,000 times.
Despite not having formal clinical training in cardiology, Dr Pasupathy has made foundational academic contributions to the field. Her PhD led to a landmark publication - now cited over 1,000 times - that helped define the concept of MINOCA. Her subsequent research has contributed directly to the international recognition of MINOCA, including its inclusion in the 2018 Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction, the adoption of formal disease classification codes (2023), and its designation as a Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) on PubMed (2024).
She was the first author of a late-breaking clinical trial and delivered a prestigious Hotline presentation at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress.
Dr Pasupathy continues to lead and contribute to research that bridges translational science and clinical cardiology, with the goal of advancing care for patients often overlooked by conventional diagnostic frameworks.
