What We Do

The Boeckel Lab investigates molecular mechanisms underlying cardiovascular, cardioimmuno and cardiometabolic diseases, focusing on non-coding RNAs, immune-vascular interactions, and translational approaches.

1. RNA Biology in Cardiovascular Disease

We study long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), circular RNAs (circRNAs), and RNA editing as regulators of cardiac and vascular function. Our goal is to understand RNA-mediated mechanisms in heart failure, vascular remodeling, and metabolic dysfunction.

2. Immune-Vascular Interactions & Metabolic Modulation

We investigate how immune cells and metabolic regulators affect vascular inflammation, tissue repair, and remodeling. Translational studies connect patient-derived data with experimental models.

3. Translational RNA Research in Cardiovascular Disease

By linking molecular insights to clinical relevance, we aim to identify RNA-based biomarkers and explore potential therapeutic strategies and interventions. Our research focuses on atherosclerosis, heart failure, and valve diseases.
