Brief description The incidence of diabetes is rising globally. The heart undergoes adverse remodelling in a setting of type 1 and 2 diabetes (diabetic heart/ diabetic cardiomyopathy) and this is associated with an increased risk for developing heart failure. New therapies for the diabetic heart are greatly needed. In this project we aim to identify and develop a novel therapy for the diabetic heart.
