Prof. Condorelli鈥檚 work focuses on the molecular mechanisms of cardiovascular diseases, in particular heart failure, studying the role of non-coding RNAs and epigenetics in this disease. Other lines of research are related to the understanding of the mechanisms of cardiomyopathies (by means of genetics and iPSCs), to the identification of biomarkers of cardiovascular diseases and, more recently, to the understanding of the role of innate and acquired immunity in cardiovascular diseases.
