The Zurich Heart House creates and communicates new knowledge in the field of cardiovascular diseases and supports through its affiliation with the Center for Molecular Cardiology of the University of Zurich and as the seat of the "Foundation for Cardiovascular Research", it is one of the most impactful cardiology research and education centres in Europe. Its reach goes far beyond its home and thanks to its close collaboration with the London Heart House involves activities in the United Kingdom, Germany, Easter countries such as Aserbeijan, Georgia, Macedonia and Mexico.

Thanks to its global reach, the Zurich Heart House is a place of creative knowledge exchange between researchers, scientists, clinicians, practicing physicians, lecturers and staff.
