Institute of Cardiovascular and Medical Sciences
The Institute of Cardiovascular and Medical Sciences (ICAMS) is a Research intensive Institute that focusses on cardiac, vascular and metabolic diseases and are proud to host world-leading basic and clinical scientists in these areas. Read more
Cross-talk between adipose tissue and the cardiovascular system in humans: From novel imaging biomarkers development to drug target discovery
We undertake translational cardiovascular research by moving from bench to bedside and vice versa; our main focus is the cross-talk between adipose tissue (AT) and the cardiovascular system. Read more
A Multi-Omics approach to understanding cardiovascular risk in patients with End-Stage Kidney Disease
Background. End-stage Kidney failure, also known as End-Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD), is the final, irreversible stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD), where kidney function has worsened to the point that the kidneys can no longer function independently. Read more

Assessing therapeutic strategies to target the counter-regulatory renin-angiotensin system in cardiovascular disease
Project outline: . The renin angiotensin system (RAS) is a hormonal cascade mediating cardiovascular function. The RAS is key to the development of cardiovascular diseases, including cardiac remodelling in hypertension and heart failure and atherosclerosis. Read more
Cardiovascular Metabolic Remodelling Induced by Odd-Chain Fatty Acids: Implication in the Therapeutic Strategy of Cardiovascular Disease(CVD)
This project is the first study to investigate functional food with high content of odd-chain fatty acids in the prevention of cardiovascular disease. Read more
Go with the flow: the why and how of cardiovascular disease
Have you ever wondered why and how cardiovascular disease and atherosclerotic plaques develop in the areas that they do? Why is it that some arteries are prone to blockage while others are protected? The answer lies with blood flow. Read more
Functional coronary artery disease genetics - defining the function of new causal atherosclerosis genes from CAD GWAS loci using in vitro and in vivo models
Despite significant advancements in its treatment coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death in both the UK and world-wide, accounting for over 66,000 deaths in the UK each year. Read more
Association of oral streptococci with vascular inflammation and cardiovascular disease risk
Bacteria are the primary cause of infectious diseases; however, emerging evidence suggests that these organisms are also indirectly responsible for several non-infectious conditions including cardiovascular diseases. Read more
Understanding why cardiovascular dysfunction is one of the leading causes of mortality in patients with Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver disease (NAFLD)
Background. Liver disease accounts for 3.5% of all global deaths/year (~2 million people) and is the third leading cause of premature death in the UK with some of the highest hospitalisations in the country seen in areas of socioeconomic deprivation. Read more
Sedentary behaviour, physical activity, psychological stress and vascular health - implications for cardiovascular disease
Loughborough University is a top-ten rated university in England for research intensity (REF, 2014) and an outstanding 66% of the work of Loughborough’s academic staff who were eligible to be submitted to the REF was judged as ‘world-leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’, compared to a national average figure of 43%.
