The Centre for Cardiovascular Health is a multidisciplinary research and education centre committed to improving global cardiovascular health. Our approach focuses on how to close the evidence practice gap through our strong focus on patient involvement and implementation science.

Cardiovascular disease is the primary cause of death globally. In Scotland alone it affects 15% of the population, and costs the National Health Service £800m per year. Established in 2021, the Cardiovascular Health Centre aims to develop a unique combination of ‘bench to bedside and beyond’ research, focused on innovative solutions to improving patient-centred cardiovascular health. We have particular focus on the patient and working alongside healthcare practitioners based in hospitals and community healthcare centres.
