Cardiac Development, Regeneration and Repair

Written by Stela BCI | Mar 30, 2016 9:00:52 AM

 

Conference - Snowbird, United States
 
This meeting will emphasize shared molecular mechanisms in cardiovascular development, regeneration and disease and consider how patient-relevant pluripotent stem cell models can contribute to understanding human disease states. Discussion of new bioassays, methods of genetic modification and bioengineering in animals and stem cells will complement these sessions, with the aim of facilitating translational approaches in cardiovascular regeneration, repair and disease modeling. Specific aims are to:
1) Consider animal models for understanding cardiovascular cell lineage commitment, differentiation and proliferation;
2) Explore how this can be applied to creating new stem cell-based models that result in mature cardiovascular derivatives and assays for disease target discovery; and
3) Explore therapeutic potential for cardiovascular repair and regeneration mechanisms in clinical practice.
