Stroke in the Lab World
Stroke in the Lab World: High-Dimensional Single Cell Analyses to Unravel the Complexities of Cerebrovascular Disease and Brain Health
February 7, 2023
9:00 a.m. - 5:30 p.m.
This symposium is designed to be a deep-dive into single cell -omics techniques and other high-dimensional single cell analyses as applied to research in cerebrovascular diseases and brain health. Topics include methodologies in single cell transcriptomics as well as applied research presentations on vasculature development, neurodegenerative diseases, ischemic stroke, intracranial stenosis, intracerebral hemorrhage, hypertension and cognition, among other topics. There will also be a panel discussion focused on opportunities and limitations of high dimensional single cell analysis techniques. In addition to senior faculty talks, the symposium includes presentations from early career faculty and trainees who were selected to meet our mission of fostering young investigators to further advance the stroke field.
After participating in this activity, participants will be able to:
- Compare the advantages of single cell transcriptomics and other single cell analysis methods.
- Explain the results of various studies applying high dimensional analyses at the single cell level.
- Describe cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in vulnerability to ischemia, hemorrhage, vascular remodeling, and neurodegeneration.
