Active Projects:
- Development of cellular matrices for the treatment of cardiomyopathies
- Effect of sympathetic denervation on pulmonary and cardiac function in an experimental model of pulmonary hypertension
- Influence of intraventricular conduction on the different phases of the cardiac cycle. Comparative study of intervals obtained by echocardiography with those obtained by vectorcardiography
