Note to Editors:
The Institute of Cardiovascular Research has been established in Dundee
to create a centre of excellence with the aim of helping to beat heart and
vascular disease. Research is ongoing but £3.5 million is required to
successfully establish a research centre, the building of which is
expected to begin at the University Medical School's Ninewells campus in around 2
years.
Major commitments have already been made from the University of Dundee (£240K) and Scottish Enterprise Tayside (£200K)
The campaign has been running for a year and more than £1/2 million has so far been raised.
