Belgian Heart Fund - Basic research in cardiology
Support for basic research in cardiology.
What is it about?
This call concerns non-commercial projects for basic research in the field of cardiovascular research. This research encompasses scientific disciplines such as biochemistry, physiology, and pharmacology and their interplay and involves laboratory studies with cell cultures, animal studies or physiological experiments. Patients are not in the centre of the study but biological samples (e.g. blood) can be used for this purpose.
It is a joint call by the Belgian Heart Fund, the Fund Walckiers-Van Dessel and the Fund Fernand Léonard.
