Basic Research in Cardiology focuses on the fundamental mechanisms underlying cardiovascular diseases. Research areas include viral myocarditis, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, coronary vasodilation and autoregulation, exercise-induced cardiac effects, ischemia-reperfusion injury, atrial fibrillation, and the impact of diabetes on cardiovascular health. Studies often employ animal models and in vitro systems to investigate cardiac dysfunction, inflammation, electrophysiology, and vascular responses.
