In this episode of the Heart podcast, Digital Media Editor Dr. James Rudd is joined by a vascular biology legend, Professor Peter Libby from Harvard University and Chief of Cardiovascular Medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. They discuss how the inflammation hypothesis of atherosclerosis has been proven by the CANTOS trial and what the future might hold. We trust you'll enjoy the police sirens in the middle of the interview and hope you enjoy the discussion.
