The journal named 'Practice of Cardiovascular Sciences' will also focus on improving the teaching methods and clinical implementation of the subject in every medical colleges in India.
The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) will collaborate with JNU's School of Life Sciences.
"This is going to be a great solution for the gap that has prevailed till now in terms of cardiovascular sciences and its implementation. It will encourage close links between clinicians and basic scientists," AIIMS cardiology professor Sandeep Seth said at a pre-launch conference.
