About our Project
Depression is a common and serious comorbidity of cardiovascular disease (CVD) affecting one in three patients, among which women earlier and more frequently. Both diseases pose a significant economic burden to households, the health system and society.
The EU-funded TO_AITION project aims to understand CVD-depression co/multimorbidities, unwind causative mechanisms and biomarkers, and develop novel tools and research directions for improving the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of these highly prevalent and devastating conditions.
TO_AITION’s main objective is to bridge the knowledge gap that drives CVD -depression comorbidity by integrating basic, preclinical and clinical research in order to identify the underlying immune-metabolic mechanisms that lead to these diseases.
