Welcome

• Heart diseases are still one of the most important causes of mortality around the world, being responsible for 3 out of 10 deaths, as per the World Health Organization (WHO). In many cases, heart diseases are caused by a condition called atherosclerosis.
  
  The prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis are still a great concern in the medical community. Clinical research will probably allow developing medications and techniques that are more reliable and more efficient, not only for treating but also preventing for these diseases.
  
  Your participation to research could contribute to the fight against this disease.
