British Hypertension Society Annual Scientific Meeting
Scientific Conference - Queens’ College Cambridge, UK
The programme includes presentations by invited speakers on a broad range of
topics including sleep and cardiovascular disease, blood pressure variability and
cardiovascular imaging in the hypertensive patient. In addition, the meeting will
commence on Monday afternoon with a session dedicated to the NICE
Hypertension Guidelines, which will have been launched only one month before
the conference. The Sir George Pickering Lecture will be given by one of the
Society’s founding member. The programme will also feature interesting and unusual clinical cases, a debate on the
use of experimental models in hypertension research, an update on the latest
news from clinical trials and parallel nurse sessions. The remainder of the
programme will consist of oral and poster presentations based on submitted
abstracts.

Protein-Folding Diseases: Models & Mechanisms
Symposium - Cambridge, United States
This one-day Symposium will focus on how misfolded proteins contribute to disease and disease processes at the cellular and whole-organism level, highlighting the diverse biological models that can be used to address this issue. It is becoming increasingly clear that protein misfolding underlies many disease states, including neurodegenerative diseases, prion diseases, type 2 diabetes, cystic fibrosis and cancer. In addition, it is thought to contribute to the normal process of aging. Please join us on Tuesday, September 4th, 2012, at The Broad Institute, to hear the latest advances in this area from ten world-renowned experts in the field.
The Symposium is organized by Susan Lindquist (MIT) and Vivian Siegel, (The Broad Institute, and Editor-in-Chief of Disease Models & Mechanisms).
