Research

Heart Research UK has funded pioneering medical research at hospitals and universities across the UK for over 45 years. We're very proud of those projects we've supported, from heart transplants to artifical hearts, novel new tests for heart attacks and improvements in diagnostic and surgical techniques to understanding congenital heart disease, family screening and UK-wide data analysis

Our tradition of funding ground breaking projects continues and we currently fund over £4 million of research projects at 33 centres of excellence across the UK.
