Novel Discoveries in Vascular Physiology

Featured Topic — Tuesday, April 24, 2024 — 8:30 AM - 10:00 AM — Convention Center, Room 27
Cardiovascular Section — Chair: Scott Earley — Co-Chair:

The audience will learn new discoveries in vascular physiology that derive from the use of genetic models. We intend to choose speakers from different career stages, with an emphasis on young investigators. Attendees will be exposed to broad knowledge on this topic of research and give junior researchers an opportunity to present their work in a symposium at a large International conference.
