A centre dedicated to the study of diseases associated with sudden death.

The CGC's research aims to improve knowledge of the associated factors and basic mechanisms that cause cardiovascular disease and sudden death and improve the tools for its diagnostic, prevention, and treatment.

This scientific area is divided into a clinical research area and a basic research area.

CLINICAL RESEARCH: The clinical research program takes advantage of the collaboration of hospitals and health centres to study risk factors, possible treatments, and prevention methods.

BASIC RESEARCH: Studies aimed at better understanding the biological bases of diseases associated with sudden death. The laboratory participates in different projects to understand the physio pathological basis of sudden death in six major aspects: Genetics, epigenetics, histology, electrophysiology, membrane trafficking and proteomics.

Main lines of research

Genetic and molecular bases of sudden cardiac death.

Strategic objectives
  • Promote research, teaching and health care quality in the field of heart disease, especially in those that can cause arrhythmias and sudden death
  • Carry out a basic and clinical research program dedicated to cardiovascular disease.
  • The research program is based on the synergy provided by the different specialisms within the group.
  • Provide high-level medical assistance thanks to the incorporation of genetic technology into current methods of diagnosis and treatment.
  • Genetic results allow complementing clinical tests, often insufficient to reach a diagnosis, and customizing treatment options.
  • Develop new genetic tools that improve the diagnosis of patients at risk of cardiovascular disease. Main lines of research
  • Genetic and molecular bases of sudden cardiac death.
