Asian Cardiovascular Symposium - The Academy of Cardiovascular Research Excellence (my-acre.org)
July 21, 2024, Hilton Chicago, Chicago, Illinois
The Asian Cardiovascular Symposium offers a pre-meeting symposium, held one day prior to the official BCVS Scientific Sessions, jointly hosted by the Academy of Cardiovascular Research Excellence (ACRE), Japanese Cardiovascular Research Association (JCRA), Korean Cardiovascular Society (KCS) and the Society for South Asian Heart Research (SAHR). The symposium will provide opportunities for both oral and poster presentations, especially for early career trainees, followed by keynote presentation, dinner, and an award ceremony, for the reunion of BCVS members, colleagues and friends around the world in the field of cardiovascular sciences. Separate registration required.
Target Audience
- Basic cardiovascular scientists
- Molecular/cellular biologists
- Physiologists
- Translational investigators
- Clinical trialists
- Practicing cardiologists
- Cardiovascular nurses and pharmacists
Learning Objectives
- Understand new developments in cardiovascular pathophysiology and their implications for future therapeutics.
- Discuss emerging translational research in preventing and treating cardiovascular disease and its precursors.
- Recognize scope and implication of cardio-immunology for advancing future therapeutics.
- Describe areas for therapeutic development which attenuate the intracellular transmission of cellular disease and dysfunction.
