Welcome to the Center for Cardiovascular Biology
The Center for Cardiovascular Biology is dedicated to discovering the molecular basis of cardiovascular disease, harnessing this information to develop new therapies, and training the next generation of cardiovascular physicians and scientists.
Latest Research
Researchers in the Davis Lab reveal new details about the role an RNA binding protein (MBNL1) plays in the steps that lead to scarring in the heart.
Breakfast Club Seminar Series
Occurs weekly on Thursdays from 9-10 am at the UW SLU campus. We have a fantastic line-up of Distinguished Lecturers this academic year (2023-2023)!
Collaborative. Curious. Bold
We are a team-minded group of scientists with a passion for basic science, translational cardiovascular research, and the public good. Our labs are technology hubs, training villages, and centers of multiscale discovery driven by the latest advances in cell biology, biomaterials, and regenerative medicine.
