This project investigates the genetic factors contributing to atrial fibrillation, a common heart condition. It focuses on the role of the ADAM-15 gene using a mouse model to understand its impact on heart function and aims to establish a research facility in Munich to advance studies in this area.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in Europe affecting more than 6 million people. AF is associated with significant mortality and morbidity including an increased risk for stroke, dementia and heart failure.
Thus, AF is a major healthcare burden.The pathophysiology of AF is complex and still not fully understood.
Increasing data support a genetic component to AF.
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified genetic variants associated with increased susceptibility for A…
