Awards 2019
October 2019 Simone-Franziska Glaser and Andreas Heumüller were awarded at the GfMVB Meeting in Heidelberg. Simone-Franziska Glaser received the Young Investigator/ Best Oral Communication Award 2019 for her talk on „JMJD2B is involved in the epigenetic regulation during endothelial to mesenchymal transition“. Andreas Heumüller was awarded the Best Poster Award for his poster titled „The circular RNA cZNF292 regulates endothelial cell morphology, angiogenesis and ciliogenesis“.
June 2019 The Council for Basic Cardiovascular Research of the European Society of Cardiology awarded the 2019 Outstanding Achievement Award to Reinier Boon. He receives this award in recognition of his contribution to cardiovascular basic science in
recent years, including his work on unraveling the molecular mechanisms that control cardiovascular aging. The award will be officially presented at the ESC Congress in Paris in September 2019. see more…

Award 2018
Stefanie Dimmeler visited several institutions across Australia as part of the Selby Fellowship during January and February. She visited eight institutes and universities, including a six-week sabbatical at the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute in Sydney.
The visits allowed Stefanie Dimmeler to establish and build on existing collaborations, and to give lectures in Melbourne, Perth, Canberra, Sydney and Brisbane. Selby Fellowships are awarded to distinguished overseas scientists to visit Australia for public lecture or seminar tours, and to visit scientific centres in Australia.
Award 2017
April 2017, Simone-Franziska Glaser receives the Award for the best Posterpresentation at the 83rd Annual Meeting of the German Society for Cardiology (DGK) 2017 in Mannheim. Simone-Franziska gave an excellent poster presentation about the role of the histone demethylase JMJD2B in endothelial-to-mesenchymal cell transition.
March/April 2017, Dorotée Julia Trembinski wins the Young Investigator Award at the Dutch-German Meeting of the cardiology work groups in Münster and receives the second price of the Rudi-Busse-Young-Investigator-
Dark Genome: Non-Coding RNA’s in Cardiovascular Disease
Paul Dudley White Lecturer Stefanie Dimmeler, MD, PhD describes her recent work on the role of non-coding RNA’s in cardiovascular disease and the progress being made towards translating that knowledge into new clinical treatments.
Award 2016
Federica Lunella received her award from the president of the organising committee of the FCVB (Frontiers in Cardiovascular Biology) congress, Prof Elisabetta Cerbai, in July in Florence, Italy. The FCVB biannual congress is organised by the European Society of Cardiology Council on Basic Cardiovascular Science.
Award 2015
Prof. Dr. Konstantinos Stellos has been honored with the „Young Investigator Award“ of the American Heart Association’s Council on Functional Genomics and Translational Biology for his translational research about the role of RNA editing in gene expression in atherosclerotic heart disease, which was presented at the annual meeting of the American Heart Association in Orlando, 8th of November 2015.
