Ballana Heart Study
The Magdi Yacoub Global Heart Foundation is committed to furthering research that will advance and deepen the global understanding of heart disease. A portion of this research is dedicated to population studies, such as the 30-year Ballana Heart Study that is being carried out at the Aswan Heart Centre. Ballana is a small village near Aswan with a stable population that is accessible to Aswan Heart Centre researchers, has a strong community spirit, and carries an eagerness to contribute positively to our mission.
