The Center is composed by several research groups each focusing on different aspects of translational research in cardiovascular physiology. In particular, the group led by Professor Thomas F Lüscher focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying myocardial infarction as well as HDL dysfunction; the group led by Professor Christian Matter focuses on atherothrombosis in genetically modified mice and translates these findings to the clinical context in patients with acute coronary syndromes; the group headed by PD Dr. Giovanni G. Camici studies the pathogenesis of vascular aging and stroke with particular emphasis on aging of systemic vs cerebral arteries; the team headed by Prof. Urs Eriksson studies the mechanisms of heart-specific autoimmunity and progression of postinflammatory cardiomyopathy; the group led by Prof. Jürg H. Beer investigates the cardioprotective effects of alpha linolenic acid and platelets.
