This work is of fundamental importance for understanding the immune system and its reactions

The Honorific Award for Excellence in Scientific Research is awarded in recognition of the career of scientists who have contributed to the generation of knowledge and advances in their field of specialization

The team led by Dr. Pablo García-Pavía, based at the CNIC and Hospital Puerta de Hierro, has published the first study of a drug able to remove amyloid deposits from the heart

The results, published in eClinicalMedicine, have direct implications for clinical practice by providing a list of reference values for a multitude of cardiac parameters used in daily practice

A study published in Nature Cell Biology confirms that caveolae are essential for the mechanical responses of tissues subject to large mechanical forces (such as muscle, heart, blood vessels, and fat), whereas larger membrane depressions (termed 'dolines') are important for the response to weak or medium-strength forces

The experimental study, led by researchers at the CNIC, shows that boosting the expression of this adrenalin receptor in heart cells improves mitochondrial function in the heart

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
