Understanding heart attacks and cardiac tissue damage
Myocardial infarction (MI), commonly known as a heart attack, occurs when blood flow decreases or stops to a part of the heart, causing damage to the heart muscle. Our laboratory focuses on understanding its pathophysiology, molecular mechanisms, and potential therapeutic interventions.
Investigating the role of neutrophils in acute cardiac damage and repair processes.
Identifying and validating new molecular targets for MI treatment.
Developing new diagnostic and prognostic markers for MI.
Our research benefits from active collaborations with leading institutions and organizations:
