Stefan Coassin - Genetic Mutations

Author Information

Stefan Coassin is affiliated with the Institute of Genetic Epidemiology, Department of Genetics and Pharmacology, Medical University of Innsbruck, Innsbruck, Austria. His research primarily focuses on genetic epidemiology and cardiovascular diseases.

Research Contributions

Stefan Coassin has made significant contributions to the field of genetic epidemiology, particularly in understanding the genetic determinants of cardiovascular diseases. His work involves genome-wide characterization of hyperlipoprotein(a)emia and the role of LPA variants in cardiovascular risk. Notably, he has explored the impact of LPA KIV-2 variants on lipoprotein(a) concentrations and their protective effects against coronary artery disease. Additionally, his research has delved into the interplay between lipoprotein(a) and SARS-CoV-2 infections, and the influence of PCSK9 inhibitors on lipoprotein(a) reduction.
