HI-TAC

At the first Helmholtz Institute for Translational AngioCardioScience (HI-TAC) conference, researchers from the Max Delbrück Center and Heidelberg University discussed bridging the gap between vascular and cardiac research, and translating research findings to clinical practice.

The Max Delbrück Center in Berlin and Heidelberg University will found a new Helmholtz Institute for Translational AngioCardioScience (HI-TAC) in Mannheim and Heidelberg. The Helmholtz Senate voted in favor of the institute, which will integrate vascular biomedicine, systems biology and heart research.
