Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common rhythm disturbance of the heart and approximately 25% of adults over 40 will be diagnosed with it in their lifetime. AF is a strong risk factor for heart failure stroke and increased mortality. The objective of the proposed research is to further our understanding into the mechanisms responsible for AF, enhance the management of this condition and provide new approaches for translation of these findings to the routine treatment and prevention of AF.

心房颤动(房颤)是最常见的心脏节律紊乱，在40岁以上的成年人中，约有25%的人会在一生中被诊断为房颤。房颤是心力衰竭、中风和死亡率增加的强烈危险因素。本研究的目的是加深我们对房颤发病机制的认识，加强对房颤的治疗，并为房颤的常规治疗和预防提供新的途径。
