TechNOW: Phones and Fitbits for healthier hearts

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in Australia. It claims 21 lives every day. Those who do survive heart attacks can take months to recover. That’s where Associate Professor Nicole Freene comes in. She's developed an app-based exercise program designed to improve the health of older people at risk of a repeat heart attack. TechNOW is a podcast about Australian innovations that are shaping the future, thanks to the Global Connections Fund: a project run by the Australian Academy of Technology and Engineering and supported by the Australian Government.
