We are at a crucial point in time for those with cardiovascular diseases, there is an estimated 64.3 million people living with HF worldwide and with factors such as our expanding ageing population, figures are set to double by 2040. The BSH's 25in25 initiative is a transformative project to reduce mortality and change the trajectory for HF. Read more here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Cardiology Update London starts with 2 inspiring key-note-lectures by Hugh Watkins from Oxford on curing cardiomyopathies by gene therapy, and by Borge Nordestgaard on lipoprotein (a), ASOs and siRNAs - take note of this event providing the year in cardiology on December 11-12.

🔉🧑🎓👨🎓We listen to our members and respond quickly to their needs. Register now for this upcoming webinar: eas.to/WebNov13Reg.
We’ll explore gene-based drug approaches that promise earlier, more effective treatments for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Topics include recent advances in RNA-targeting strategies and genome editing with CRISPR/Cas9, offering hope for patients with severe dyslipidemias and atherosclerosis. @ProfKausikRay @KatiOorni
