Unimore and AOU di Modena present cardiovascular research at ESC Congress 2026

Researchers from the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia (Unimore) and the Modena University Hospital (AOU) participated in the ESC Congress 2026 in Munich. The event, organized by the European Society of Cardiology, drew over 34,000 global participants focused on cardiovascular research, innovation, and clinical practice.

Led by Professor Giuseppe Boriani, the Modena cardiology team presented original research, participated in invited lectures, and discussed randomized clinical trials. Research topics included heart failure, atrial fibrillation, arrhythmias, telemedicine, remote cardiac device monitoring, and cardio-oncology.

A notable multidisciplinary effort in cardio-oncology involved a study on pericardiocentesis in oncology patients, published in Clinical Research in Cardiology, which integrated cardiology, hemodynamics, and oncology departments at the Modena Policlinico.
