Heart Disease

Wait, what, you’re saying we might soon ‘mostly defeat’ heart disease?

Cremieux: It's hard to oversell how big a discovery this is.

Heart disease is America's #1 cause of death. With a combination of two drugs administered once every six months, it might be mostly defeated.

Just think about that how big this is! You will know your great-grandkids!
