The Precision Cardiology Laboratory (PCL) of the Ó³»´«Ã½ and Bayer will focus on using innovative technologies to better understand cardiovascular disease and pursue new drug targets.
The PCL combines Ó³»´«Ã½â€™s innovative methods for basic scientific discovery and the clinical expertise of its practicing physician/researchers with Bayer’s long history of drug discovery and development. Physically located at the Ó³»´«Ã½, the PCL consists of scientists from the Ó³»´«Ã½ and Bayer working together toward a shared scientific vision.
The initial goal of the PCL is to characterize individual cells from human tissue samples and preclinical animal models in health and disease. These high-resolution, single cell maps will broaden our understanding of underlying disease mechanisms and facilitate the development of new therapeutic interventions.
