Info

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the western world. A progressively ageing population is increasingly affected by neurological diseases, which brings a negative impact on European economies with more than 1 billion euros cost of patients rehabilitation per year. Faced with too slow and expensive progress in development of new therapies, BIONECA explores new approaches to discover therapeutic protocols are urgently needed.
