Developing individualized heart disease therapies.

Since 2022, CRC1550 has pioneered a new approach to cardiac research. We integrate experimental and patient data with systems biology to uncover the molecular circuits driving heart disease. Our mission: identify key therapeutic targets that will transform how we predict, prevent, and treat cardiovascular conditions.

PROJECTS

Our research addresses fundamental questions about how genetic mutations and environmental stress reshape cardiac function, identifying shared molecular nodes across inherited and acquired heart disease.

Research Area A

Genetic components of heart disease

Research Area B

Signaling wires of heart pathways

SERVICE PROJECTS

Service Projects are collaborative initiatives designed to support and enhance the work of the entire consortium.
