Heart Rhythm Research Brussels
PROJECTS
Multidisciplinary collaboration
Our project unites leading specialists in:
Cardiology & Electrophysiology
Exploring mechanisms of arrhythmias and novel ablation techniques. Our experts conduct indepth studies of heart electrical activity to understand abnormal rhythms and develop innovative treatments such as high-definition mapping systems, precision ablation, and next-generation defibrillators.
Genetics
Identifying high-risk genetic variants and personalized treatment strategies. We perform large-scale genetic screening, functional studies, and familial analysis to uncover genetic predispositions to arrhythmias. By combining this knowledge with clinical insights, we aim to personalize therapies and improve long-term patient outcomes.
Imaging
Utilizing advanced technologies like MRI, CT, and electro-anatomical
mapping for deeper insights. High-resolution imaging techniques allow us to visualize structural and functional changes in the heart with unparalleled accuracy. This data informs treatment strategies and supports the development of tools for non-invasive risk assessment.
Computational Modeling
Simulating heart rhythms to predict and understand complex electrical patterns. Our team develops sophisticated computer models of heart electrophysiology, enabling us to simulate arrhythmias under various conditions. These models provide valuable insights into treatment responses, surgical planning, and patient-specific interventions.
Biotechnology
Pioneering innovative biotherapies, tissue engineering, and biomarker development. We focus on creating novel biotechnological solutions, such as regenerative tissue therapies, RNA-based treatments, and biosensors for real-time arrhythmia detection. These advancements have the potential to revolutionize both prevention and care.
Clinical Medicine
Translating discoveries into actionable clinical trials for improved patient outcomes. We conduct robust clinical studies to validate innovative therapies and technologies, ensuring they meet the highest standards of safety and effectiveness. By working directly with patients, we bridge the gap between research and real-world care.
