Modena cardiology stars at the European Congress in London
The recent European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress in London, one of the most important events for cardiology worldwide, was attended by over 31,000 cardiologists from all over the world. During the event, significant results and new guidelines for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, which remain among the leading causes of mortality in Western countries, were presented.
Modena Cardiology of Unimore and the University Hospital played a prominent role, with two invited lectures by Giuseppe Boriani, Professor of Cardiology, Director of the Complex Structure of Cardiology and of the Department of Cardiac, Vascular and Nephrological Diseases of the Polyclinic. This was complemented by eight scientific presentations by members of the Polyclinic's research team, resulting from international collaborative projects with prestigious academic institutions, including the University of Liverpool and other European and North American universities.
The work presented by the Modena team covered some of the main areas of research in Modena Cardiology, such as atrial fibrillation, cardiac rhythm disorders, heart failure and telemonitoring technologies.
During the congress, Professor Boriani received two important awards: the title of “Top Reviewer” for the European Heart Journal, one of the most influential journals in the field with the highest Impact Factor, and the appointment as a member of the ESC European Cardiology Guidelines Committee for the next three years.
“We are proud of these recognitions,” emphasises Professor Giuseppe Boriani, “which are the result of the efforts of our Unimore researchers in collaboration with other European centres, first and foremost the University of Liverpool, and we are ready to continue with great commitment also within the Horizon Aristoteles Research Project, in which we coordinate the multidisciplinary research activities of a number of leading European centres in Artificial Intelligence, with the aim of assessing the clinical impact of artificial intelligence in the field of cardiology.”
The EU-funded Horizon Aristoteles Project focuses on integrating artificial intelligence into clinical practice to improve the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
