Since the American Heart Association stated in 1999 that 'diabetes is a cardiovascular disease', many revolutionary events took place in the rapidly evolving field of cardiovascular diabetology. The initial 'bridal' between heart diseases and diabetes is at present a vast and complex interdisciplinary texture which includes innovative biotechnological approaches, such as genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, molecular biometrics, bioinformatics, customized therapies and various additional sophisticated practices. Our journal endeavors to be a harbinger of these fascinating advances.
