Oslo Center for Clinical Heart Research (Oslo-CCHR)
The research activity at the Department of Cardiology is organised into three research groups that collectively form a center, namely the Oslo Center for Clinical Heart Research (Oslo-CCHR). The three research groups are as follows: 1) Clinical Cardiovascular Research group, 2) Cardiological Intensive Care group, 3) Oslo-CCHR Laboratory.
Oslo-CCHR perform investigator-initiated clinical trials on the large patient groups within the Department of Cardiology Ullevål, chair investigator-initiated national clinical trials, perform translational studies using our large biobanks, participate in collaborative projects with other departments and research groups, and participate in international multicenter trials relevant for our patient groups. Our main research goal is to better understand the common diseases of the heart, i.e., myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, and heart failure, and common comorbidities such as diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, obesity and thrombosis.
