title: [Research in Austria - the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Lung Vascular Research].
abstract: The Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Lung Vascular Research was founded in 2010 and performs basic and clinical research on the field of chronic pulmonary vascular diseases. The major projects of the institute focus on the investigation of the pathomechanisms of pulmonary vascular remodeling, the development of novel non-invasive diagnostic techniques of pulmonary hypertension and the early detection of pulmonary vascular diseases. The institute closely cooperates with patient organizations and aims to contribute to the development of improved diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for patients with pulmonary vascular diseases. In this short overview the most important results of the first six years of the institute will be summarized.
