Starting January 1st, 2017, the IIEG will be renamed as “Institute for Cardiogenetics”.
After four years we realized that our Institute is extremely well recognized for its research in the field of cardiovascular genetics and often the very generic name of the IIEG as “Institute for Integrative and Experimental Genomics” was confusing.With the new name of our Institute our research focus is more reflected.
We only changed the name, our aims are still the same: understanding the genetics of cardiovascular diseases to eventually help patients.
