Conference Description
The Endothelial Cell Phenotypes in Health and Disease GRS provides a unique forum for young doctoral and post-doctoral researchers to present their work, discuss new methods, cutting edge ideas, and pre-published data, as well as to build collaborative relationships with their peers. Experienced mentors and trainee moderators will facilitate active participation in scientific discussion to allow all attendees to be engaged participants rather than spectators.
Topics covered will include novel data and technical approaches relevant to understanding molecular mechanisms establishing and maintaining endothelial cell diversity and adaptability in vascular development, homeostasis, and regeneration; and how endothelial dysfunction contributes to disease. This meeting also aims to stimulate discussions of how metabolic and sex differences can contribute to endothelial phenotypes in health and diseases.
The two-day meeting will feature 14 short talks selected from submitted abstracts, 2 poster sessions, and a keynote address. This GRS will also include a mentorship session in which trainees and early career investigators will receive tailored mentoring on career development from scientists at different career stages and paths.
