Dr. Florence PINET's team is looking for biomarkers associated with cardiovascular diseases and in particular the risk of death in patients with heart failure. After a myocardial infarction, if a deleterious evolution of the heart occurs, it is associated in 50% of cases with the development of heart failure, leading to a risk of death of the patient in the following years. The team's objective is to program optimal preventive monitoring for patients with heart failure and to develop a prognostic tool that could prove useful for the selection of patients who should benefit from a heart transplant as a priority.
