Thematik

The main goal of the course is to provide an overview of molecular mechanisms governing the development of cardiovascular diseases, up-to-date diagnostic and therapeutic approaches of non-invasive and interventional cardiology, and future possibilities of cardiac surgery. Introduction to translational cardiovascular research gives a unique opportunity for those students, who are interested in innovative, novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in the field of cardiology.
