Wolfson Institute Seminar:

The genetic determinants of coronary artery disease in Europe.

By: Professor David Galton
Department of Human Genetics and Metabolism
St Bartholomew's & The Royal London School of Medicine & Dentistry

There is wide variation in the incidence of premature coronary artery 
disease within Europe and these differences have been previously attributed to 
environmental factors such as diet. A recent study (the European 
Biomed project) suggests that genetic variation accounts for some of 
the observed differences between countries. This seminar will present 
some of the findings of the Biomed project.
