In this edition of the Heart podcast, associate editor Dr. James Rudd sits down with Professor Peter Weissberg, Medical Director of the British Heart Foundation (www.bhf.org.uk/about-us/who-we-are/our-directors).
As the largest independent funder of cardiovascular research in the UK (around £100 million annually), Peter has sage advice for young researchers considering a career in cardiovascular science. He looks back at some highlights from his 12 years as Medical Director of the BHF. Finally, Peter explains why there has never been a better time to consider a career in cardiovascular research.
