A CNIC study reveals that mutations previously identified in the gene MINDBOMB1 (MIB1) as causing non-compaction cardiomyopathy either provoke this disease or valve defects, depending on their combination with mutations in modifier genes

CNIC scientists have identified a molecular mechanism that accounts for the arrhythmias, skeletal muscle weakness, and periodic paralysis in patients with this rare disease

CNIC's leader have been recognized for his exceptional career achievements at the 34^th annual conference

The finding provides a basis for mitigating the loss of muscle regenerative capacity in elderly people

The project will examine long-term changes in plasma biomarkers of neuronal injury, neuroinflammation, and Alzheimer's disease in participants in the PESA-CNIC-SANTANDER study who have undergone imaging studies to map brain metabolism. The goal of the project is to determine how cardiovascular risk factors during midlife impact brain function

The 3D atlas has allowed the scientists to identify the beginning of left–right asymmetry in the heart

The research will provide insights into the development of potential treatments for neurological diseases and obesity, among other human conditions
