The Zena and Michael A. Wiener Cardiovascular Institute is a translational research hub comprised of physicians and scientists who are determined to extinguish cardiovascular diseases and to dramatically improve patient care in the process. We are actively committed to spearheading critical research and making biomedical advances in this challenging arena. Already, many of our findings have enhanced what we know about the fundamental nature of heart disease and our approach to its prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.
Cardiovascular diseases are our greatest public health threat and the leading cause of death around the globe. By integrating the three corresponding disciplines of molecular cardiology, regenerative cardiology, and cardiac imaging, we continue to make important strides in understanding, sustaining, and healing the human cardiovascular system.
