William Harvey (1578-1657) was born 444 years ago today. No April fool, through astute observation he was the first to accurately describe the circulation of the blood, core to all cardiovascular science and medicine! @RCPhysicians @FacultyHP @brithistmed @ACCinTouch @escardio

A huge well done to Tom for taking on a one mile sponsored swim, after his Grandma sadly passed away from a heart attack. Tom swam a whopping 74 lengths of his local pool and raised an incredible £1,500 to power our research. 🏊

Balancing benefits and risks of antithrombotic therapy in high risk patients is a tricky business. Chronic kidney disease exemplifies this dilemma. See some latest thoughts from @TheClotDoc and Prof Rob Storey in the EHJ @ESC_Journals doi.org/10.1093/eurheartj/eh…#cardiotwitter

Congratulations to @TheClotDoc who was awarded a High Commendation from the International Aspirin Foundation @Aspirin1897 on Friday for his work with @CardioSheffield within @ShefUni_IICD and @sheffunimdh
