What is the work of the EVGN scientists?
The people who work with the European vascular genomic network, as all other scientist, do a very interesting and important job. They have to study a lot to learn what is already known about human circulatory system and CVD diseases. Then the researchers have to make hypothesis to figure out why a specific phenomenon happens (for example why sometimes fatty substances deposit in the blood vessels causing the vessel blockage). Then they have to carry out experiments to prove (or to refuse) their theories. Finally they have to communicate their results to the other scientists and to the general public. This is a very important part of scientist’s job: in this way everyone could perform the same experiment to test the theory.
