Welcome to Cardiovascular Research in 2015.

Research in cardiovascular biology and disease is influenced by the changing landscape in biomedical and health research. Increased demands for innovation, translation, and implementation of novel findings into patient care are reflected in growth of publications and journals with more clinical and translational content, and more emphasis on the potential impact of basic and preclinical research in basic science reports. At the same time there has been an exciting growth of pure exploratory basic research, related to technological innovation, e.g. advanced microscopy, rewarded with the 2014 Nobel …
