Research Group on Cardiometabolic Risk and Diabetes

Cardiovascular Area

In terms of scientific activity of the research group during 2022, our group is participating in the development of three competitive and multidisciplinary research projects that include the following aims:

– Project: Immunopharmacological modulation of the systemic inflammation associated to metabolic disorders. Search for new therapeutic targets and synthesis of novel drugs

– Project: Study of new inflammatory and angiogenic mechanisms associated to severe morbid obesity

– Project: Role of the inflammatory processes in metabolic diseases and associated complications

– Project: Evaluation of the efficacy of pharmacogenetics to improve the response to treatment in subjects with insufficiently controlled type 2 diabetes
