Cardiovascular disease

Scientists link dozens of new genome sites to coronary artery disease risk and pioneer a powerful method for illuminating the biological roots of common disease.

Visitors are invited to explore galleries highlighting key discoveries and transformative insights in biomedicine.

By studying individual cardiac cells from heart failure patients, researchers have identified molecular signatures that point to biological mechanisms of disease.

By integrating genomic data from different ancestries, PRS-CSx reduces bias in risk-predicting polygenic scores.

Machine learning analysis of ECGs from more than 120,000 people produces method that could help doctors intervene earlier

Two teams show how inherited mutations can increase a person’s risk of accumulating sporadic mutations in their blood stem cells.

In people with a single-gene variant that puts them at high risk for heart disease, breast cancer, or colorectal cancer, the rest of the genome can alter that risk.

Study reveals surprising genomic swapping that underlies clonal hematopoiesis, a condition that can lead to blood cancer and heart disease.
