Professor, Research Dept. IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo, Pavia, Italy
Professor Eloisa Arbustini is an internationally recognized authority in inherited cardiovascular diseases and cardiovascular genetics. Based at the IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo, Pavia, Italy, she founded the Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Diseases, where she pioneered multidisciplinary precision medicine approaches integrating cardiology, pathology, genetics, imaging, and molecular diagnostics. Her work has significantly advanced the understanding of the genetic basis of cardiomyopathies and connective tissue diseases, contributing to the evolution of modern translational cardiovascular medicine.
Trained at premier international institutions, including the NHLBI in Bethesda and Stanford University, Professor Arbustini established one of Europe’s reference centers for inherited cardiovascular disorders. She has played a major role in developing innovative diagnostic pathways for rare and genetic heart diseases, with a strong focus on family screening, genotype–phenotype correlations, and personalized clinical management. Her scientific contributions, leadership within the European Society of Cardiology and the American Heart Association, and extensive publication record have made her a globally recognized figure in precision cardiovascular medicine and cardiovascular genomics.
