Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Medicine
  • Genomics
  • Epidemiology

Context:

  • Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) necessitate a shift from single-cause disease models to understanding multifactorial origins.
  • Environmental determinants of CVD risk vary significantly among individuals, highlighting population differences.
  • Understanding individual susceptibility to CVDs requires investigating the interplay of shared lifestyles and genetic specificities.

Purpose:

  • To explore the role of genomics in understanding the complexity and multifactoriality of cardiovascular diseases.
  • To investigate the physiopathological bases of individual susceptibility to CVDs.
  • To leverage genomic knowledge for improved CVD treatment and prevention strategies.

Summary:

  • Research in cardiovascular diseases has evolved to embrace complexity and multifactoriality, moving beyond single-agent theories.
