Title: Heart failure
Description: Describes the work of leading investigators studying the basic mechanisms of cardiac growth, function and dysfunction. There are also contributions from researchers developing novel therapeutic strategies for cardiac disease. The unique feature is the discussions amongst the contributors, which always return to the same basic problem: how can new data from biological studies be used to design novel therapies for the treatment of cardiac dysfunction following myocardial infarction, hypertension and other disorders?
