Valentín Fuster discusses cardiovascular research and prevention
Cardiologist Valentín Fuster, president of the Mount Sinai Fuster Heart Hospital in New York and director of the National Cardiovascular Research Center, recently spoke at the Spanish Society of Cardiology congress in Seville.
Fuster’s research spans six decades, moving from the study of blood clots and platelets to the prevention of cardiovascular disease. He highlighted the importance of studying health and prevention rather than just disease, a shift he began in 2012.
His work also explores the connection between arterial health and brain function, suggesting that cerebral vascularization may be linked to the development of Alzheimer’s disease. He noted that while therapeutic progress exists, it is challenged by rising rates of hypertension, obesity, and diabetes.
