WEBINAR SERIES – Preclinical Cardiovascular Science 2018
ON DEMAND
An overview of in vivo, ex vivo and in vitro research instrumentation, trending lab methods, best-practices and exciting research case studies focused on preclinical models of cardiovascular function and hemodynamics research.
Partners & Sponsors
Advances in laboratory instrumentation for cardiovascular research have provided scientists with a multitude of technologies for monitoring function in both anesthetized and conscious animals in vivo. Functional assays using isolated heart preparations, vessels, and cardiomyocytes provide additional layers of scientific investigation, all contributing to a deeper understanding of basic cardiovascular physiology, cardiomyopathy, translational science and potential treatment modalities for heart related illness. The purpose of this webinar series is to provide an overview of current trends and advancements in the field of preclinical cardiovascular research.
