The ATVB|PVD conference provides multiple opportunities for diverse disciplines and early career attendees to explore areas of cross-disciplinary interests within the arteriosclerosis, thrombosis, vascular biology, peripheral vascular disease, vascular surgery, and functional genomics research.
Elliott Antman, MD, president of the American Heart Association, Kathryn J. Moore, PhD, chair of the council for ATVB, Michael Conte, MD, chair of the council for PVD, and Muredach P. Reilly, MBBCH, MSCE, program chair discuss the exciting science they have planned for the meeting in San Francisco this year.
