Background
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death world-wide, accounting for approximately one third of all deaths globally. Atherosclerosis is the underlying process for most CVDs and is characterized by accumulation of cholesterol and activated immune cells in the arterial wall. The clinical presentations of atherosclerosis are diverse and comprise myocardial infarction, stroke, peripheral arterial disease etc. Vascular inflammation is a crucial component in the development of CVD and is currently evaluated as therapeutic target for cardiovascular disease.
This position is part of the Cardiovascular Research Center, (CVRC), a strong research environment focusing on cardiovascular diseases, such as arrhythmias, myocardial infarction and heart failure. The main aims of the research environment are to significantly strengthen the cardiovascular research through genuine translational research and collaboration between basic and clinical scientists at Örebro University and Örebro University Hospital, and to create unique multidisciplinary projects in the field of cardiovascular research.
Örebro University is one of the fastest growing universities in Sweden with 17000 students and 1500 employees and ranks among the top 500 universities in the world according to Times Higher Education 2019.
