Clinical and Genetic Studies in Inherited Heart Diseases and Sudden Death

这项为期5年的研究将集中于鉴定遗传性心脏病和心源性猝死患者及其家族的新基因。最先进的遗传方法将用于将我们的遗传发现与疾病的临床方面联系起来。这种关于遗传性心脏病的新的临床和遗传知识，以及将这些发现转化为改进的诊断和治疗方法，将有助于更好地照顾患有遗传性心脏病的家庭，并预防心源性猝死。

This 5-year research fellowship will focus on the identification of new genes in patients and families with inherited heart disease and sudden cardiac death. State-of-the-art genetic approaches will be used in linking our genetic findings with the clinical aspects of disease. This new clinical and genetic knowledge regarding inherited heart diseases and translation of these findings to improved diagnostic and therapeutic approaches will lead to better care of families with inherited heart diseases and prevention of sudden cardiac death.
