**PhD student (Promovendus) Cardiovascular Epidemiology**:
Multi-omics & Cardiovascular Epidemiology
- Closing date 07-10-2024- 37.09.24.TG**Job description**:
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), principally coronary heart disease and stroke, are the leading cause of global mortality and a major contributor to disability. The main underlying pathology is atherosclerosis, which often remains undetected until rupture of unstable atherosclerotic lesions causes catastrophic clinical manifestations.

Currently, few biomarkers exist that can indicate risk of CVD and the current treatment strategies rely on risk factor management. Within the context of two large national and international consortia, we aim to discover new methods to detect and treat atherosclerosis. Our aim is to better classify and mitigate the risk of cardiovascular disease by generating and analyzing novel types of genetic and proteomic data and defining novel prognostic and therapeutic targets for cardiovascular disease. Within this project, we will work with multiple genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic databases within the large-scale longitudinal population-based cohorts to advance our understanding of the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and advance the clinical management of CVD. This will allow for stratification of persons at risk for CVD and tailor-made anti-atherosclerosis therapeutics.

**Work environment**:
You will work with the Rotterdam Study data within the context of two national and international consortia. There will be collaboration with basic scientists, data scientists, and (physician) researchers in these two consortia. During your PhD, you will have the opportunity to follow relevant courses.
