Study of extracellular vesicles in cardiometabolic disease

This project will focus on transforming scientific research excellence into improved healthspan via the development of
improved diagnostics to allow personalized therapeutic strategies, with novel treatment and rejuvenation approaches
targeting cardiometabolic disease. Exciting preliminary data has been generated by the York University research
team. The Konkuk University research team have the established expertise to capitalize on the early discoveries
made at YorkU. Hence, the project will be of great mutual benefit for both institutions. Success of this research also
has more far-reaching implications in new therapeutic approaches and health benefits for our population.
