Support Veltrop’s life-changing research

Rogier Veltrop, along with a number of his family members, should have died long ago of a rare heart condition. Thanks to a donor heart, the researcher is still alive. In gratitude for this second chance at life, Rogier has dedicated himself heart and soul to his mission: finding a solution once and for all for cardiovascular diseases. He is now on the eve of a revolutionary breakthrough in his research.
