Based on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, The Heart and Lung Institute (HLRI) is a joint initiative between the University of Cambridge and Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. It is the largest centre for heart and lung research, education, academic-industrial, and clinical care in Europe. Work here focuses on conditions such as the causes of heart attacks, acute lung injury and repair, cystic fibrosis, vascular dementia, atrial fibrillation, and pulmonary hypertension. The building houses state-of-the-art research laboratories for cell, molecular and translational research, a relocated Cardiovascular Epidemiology Unit, and genetics and functional genomics groups, providing space for approximately 22 Principal Investigators and 250 researchers.
