The InGeniousHyperCare Network of Excellence : a model for continuing collaboration Alberto Zanchetti, Milan, Italy
Impact of Network Research Predictive Medicine or Mechanistic Insight ? Predictive Medicine : identification of normotensive subjects genetically prone to developing hypertension, or of hypertensive subjects genetically prone to developing hypertension complications A goal of not immediate achievement
Impact of Network Research Predictive Medicine or Mechanistic Insight ? Mechanistic Insight : identification of new genes and proteins involved in blood pressure control as targets for pathophysiological, pharmacological and therapeutic studies; identification of protein biomarkers of early cardiac and renal damage A goal within the reach of InGeniousHyperCare and continuing collaboration stemming from the Network
