Medical Biochemistry Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that aims to treat cardiovascular disease, starting from the exploration of proteins.
AboutAbout the lab
From exploring molecules to understanding disease
The Medical Biochemistry Lab studies how life processes work and how diseases arise, using the functions of proteins as clues.
The lab prioritizes exploratory research, which first discovers new biological phenomena at the molecular level, and connects it to its own systems for analyzing physiological function.
The ultimate goal is to understand disease pathology and develop disease treatments. The main target diseases are cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure and ischemic heart disease.
The lab believes that collaboration and cooperation with researchers and institutions across fields, not only within cardiovascular research, is essential.
Key terms
- Exploratory research
- Research aimed first at discovering new biological phenomena at the molecular level.
- Cardiovascular disease
- Diseases in the cardiovascular field, including heart failure and ischemic heart disease.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab focuses on the fact that living organisms make proteins with complex structures and that life processes arise from the interactions among them, and works to elucidate these complex phenomena. By connecting small discoveries to larger biological functions, it aims to contribute to understanding disease pathology and developing disease treatments.
